V1 and V2 - the German rocket missiles

V-1 - flying winged bomb, powered by a pulsating jet engine. It started from a special ramp with a length of 50 meters and a slope of 6 degrees. At the start it reached a speed of 320 km/h, which increased to 560 km/h during the flight (up to 765 km/h in the latest versions). The operational range was 230-370 km, it flew at an altitude of 300-2000 m, following the given course and altitude, the end of fuel or interruption would transfer the bomb to the falling stage and it would explode after falling. The bomb could be hit in flight from an airplane, artillery, and aerostat barriers, worked well against them. About 25,000 flying bombs were produced, 10,492 were used, of which 2,419 fell in London and 1,115 in southern England. 6,214 people died and 18,037 were injured from them. 11,988 bombs were also launched at Antwerp, Liège, Brussels, 6,551 of which reached their target.

V-2 - the rocket started vertically and reached a speed of 1500 m/s at an altitude of about 35 km within 60-70 seconds of engine operation (liquid-fueled rocket engine, fuel - ethanol + liquid oxygen). Then, in a ballistic flight, it rose to a height of 100 km, and then began to descend. Its operational range was 300 km. It was impossible to defend against their blows. By the end of the war, a total of 1,054 rockets had been fired at London and southern England, killing 1,754 and injuring 6,524. 1,341 rockets were fired at Antwerp and 227 at other targets (Liège, Brussels, Paris, Luxembourg, Remagen and The Hague) killing 4,092 and injuring 13,172.

Simple, but well-designed and well-detailed models, that even advanced beginner modelers can put together perfectly, but would do well to work under the supervision of a more experienced colleague. The V-1 also includes parts for a transport trailer.
