Description
Piece together your own V2 Rocket with this COBI building block set! Part of COBI’s World War II Historical Collection, this set contains all the blocks needed to build the German “vengeance weapon.”
The V2 rocket was the world’s first long-range guided ballistic missile and was developed by Germany during WWII as a retaliatory weapon. In response to the Allied bombings of German cities, more than 3,000 V2s were launched at the cities of London, Antwerp, and Liege. These rockets were feared by the Allies because they traveled at supersonic speeds, struck without warning, and could not be stopped. After capturing and relocating German V2 engineers to the US through Operation Paperclip, the Americans were able to build the rocket themselves.
This 1:35 scale model features a rocket and launch pad. Perfect for military enthusiasts ages 8+, this set brings the famous V2 rocket to life in incredible detail! Dimensions are 15.1” long, 3.1” wide, and 3.1” high. ~Alex
Publisher's Description of COBI V2 Rocket/Vergeltumgswaff - 600 pieces (World War II Historical Collection)
The V2 rocket is one of the most famous so-called wonder
weapons (German “Wunderwaffe”), which were supposed to turn the tide of
war. This construction still fascinates many history and World War II
enthusiasts. This legendary design was so requested that COBI could not
resist the ever-increasing questions about this set. Here is the
legendary V2 rocket in 1:35 scale in an Executive Edition version,
enriched with additional blocks. The rocket itself has a removable
casing, under which there is a reproduced interior: a powerful rocket
engine, fuel tank and a warhead with an explosive charge!
The 560-piece set includes:
· A model of a V2 rocket with recreated interior elements
· A launch platform
The V2 (Vergeltungswaffe 2) rockets were the world's first long-range ballistic missiles. They were developed by Germany during World War II, and their main designer was Wernher von Braun, later one of the main pioneers of the American space program. The V2s were used by the Germans mainly to attack London and other Allied cities from 1944 onward. The V2s had a range of about 300 km and could carry an explosive charge weighing 1 ton. The design was based on engines burning liquid fuel in a pioneering way. After launch, the rocket would rise to an altitude of about 100 km (that's space!) and then fall to the target at a tremendous speed, making it virtually impossible to intercept. The V-2 was the forerunner of all modern ballistic missiles and had a significant impact on the development of space technology after the war.
