Advanced versions of the V-2 rocket
about V-2 in 1944 from France to somewhere in London. The way it was built was just fine for bombarding the city, and even bringing the CEP down to 1km is pointless without a nuclear warhead. With its Amatol warhead the only thing that was going to make any difference would be if you could somehow bring CEP down to 100 m, not 1 km. What target would be the difference? Big Ben? British Museum? The grave of Karl Marx or a Synagoge? No joke - Feldmarschall Milch in his memoirs described the talk about the "America Bomber". He asked what target in New York shall be bombed by such a project. Answer: "The habour or the jewish quarter!" This guys were realy the best example of `Neolithic mind with modern weapons`. If they would take out the electric utility plants in southern England, what do you think Bomber Command would go for next? ## CrossPoint v3.12d R ## |
