V-2 Missile

The epitome of Hitler's "Wunder Weapons" and the most quickly thought of when someone speaks of the radical or advanced Nazi designs from WWII, the V-2 earned its place in history as being the first guided ballistic missile to see widespread use.  While crude and innacurate by today's laser guided, GPS cued, "smart" bomb standards, the V-2 was a big leap forward for the technology of the day.  Due to its historical noteriety, this subject has been molded many a time over the years.  Back some decades ago, Revell chose the V-2 as the subject of one of its "History Makers" kits and rendered it, along with its trailer / erector in 1/54th scale.  While out of production, that kit can still be found on eBay and on the back shelves of some hobby stores.  The V-2 has also been issued in other, more popular scales over the years.  Mauve rendered one in 1/48th and there's been several in 1/35th.  Of late has been the versions rendered by Condor, Special Hobby and MPM.
