Werner von Braun
It was launched in the year 1944.
No V2 rockets were launched on D-Day. D-Day took place on 6 June 1944. The first operational launch of a V2 rocket (known in German as Aggregat 4 (A4), codenamed in Britain as Bodyline or Big Ben) took place on 8 September 1944, when a single rocket was fired at Paris. The rocket land near Porte d'Italie and caused only minor damage.A second V2 rocket was launched against London the same day, landing in Chiswick and killing two people. In order not to create a panic, the British government issued a cover story that the explosion had been caused by a gas explosion.
it was unmanned
The V1 and V2 rocket technology was developed and perfected by a team of German scientists under the leadership of pioneering rocketeer Dr. Wernher von Braun. It was von Braun, considered to be the top rocket engineer of the century, who was Germany's key leader in rocket technology that led to the success of the V1 and V2 rockets. Toward the end of the war, pioneer pioneer von Braun led his team to the American lines and surrendered to the Allies, rather than face being captured by the advancing Soviets. He and his team were brought to the United States, and after a period where their records were "bleached" by U.S. intelligence of their former past, they were put to work on the U.S. rocket programs. Von Braun became NASA's leader in rocket development, which culminated in the design and success of the Saturn V rocket.
The V1 was not a rocket, but a flying bomb powered by a simple form of jet engine called a pulse jet. It was equivalent to a modern cruise missile. A V2, on the other hand, was a rocket propelled rocket. The V1 could be stopped with gunfire or by attacks from fast fighters such as the Hawker Tempest, de Havilland Mosquito. The V2, on the other hand was undetectable, as it was fired into the stratosphere and hit its target with a speed higher than that of sound.

A4 was the German v2
The German V2 rocket was developed by a team led by Wernher von Braun and developed by scientists such as Walter Dornberger and Arthur Rudolph at the Peenemünde Army Research Center during World War II.
It was apparently around 5,760 km/h.
A V2 German rocket/bomb reached low-earth-orbit in tests in 1942(In another answer to a similar question, the same contributor writes:"They say that a V2 German rocket/bomb reached low-earth-orbit . . . . . " etc.So I'd be careful about taking this information to the bank, at least until I knowwho "they" is.)
The first rocket sent into space was called V-2, which was launched by Germany in 1944.
If you mean the first to reach space, they say that a V2 German rocket reached Low-earth-orbit during testing in 1942.
I don't know what you are asking, but the V1 and V2 were German rocket-bombs used in World War 2.CorrectionThe V1 was not a rocket.

dno
the first rocket (the V2) was launched in 1942.
The V1 and V2 were German military weapons during World War 2. The V1 was a flying bomb also called a buzz bomb. It used a type of jet engine. It worked similar to a drone. The V2 was a bomb carrying rocket. It was designed by Werner von Braun. He used designs by Goddard from the US patent office. He also started the American space program, which put a man on the moon.
