It was also the first man-made object that went beyond the Earth's atmosphere. The V2 was designed to be the ultimate attack weapon of WW2. One that no plane could intercept, no gun could shoot down and no counter measures could affect. It struck without warning and left ruin in its wake. But was the V2 truly an effective weapon? Did this missile give the Germans a chance to win the war? In this film we will analyze how this rocket worked, what impact it had on the outcome of WW2 and what was the greatest legacy of the genius of the V2 design. This film was researched using various historical documents and scientific articles about design of systems of A4 (V2) ballistic missile.
