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.
Including WWI, WWII, the Vietnam War, and more, these military vehicle replicas make unique toys and displays. The combat vehicle sets resemble specific tanks, jeeps, planes, and ships that have been used in both sides of war through modern history. The models are made of interlocking plastic bricks, pre-printed with logos and identification markings. The sets vary in difficulty level, and piece count and are great for interactive and imaginative play. COBI bricks are compatible with other brick construction brands. ~ Brianna
The World War II set features tanks, aircraft, ships, and other vehicles of both American and German sides of combat. Each set includes one or more characters which match the theme and ranking of the vehicle. Also available are figure sets featuring a variety of uniformed men with weapons.
