It was a forerunner of Cold War ballistic missiles and its combat use in 1944-45 set the pattern for the use of Scud ballistic missiles in recent decades. The V-2 offensive lasted from September 1944 until March 1945 with over 3,000 rockets being launched. This book examines the combat record of the V-2 in World War II, with a special focus on how a German missile battalion actually prepared and fired its missiles.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52341549498656,"sku":"USED1841765414","price":22.78,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81YimGkCzYL.jpg?v=1789157825","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/new-vanguard-82-v-2-ballistic-missile-1942-52-1841765414-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
