The V in the word V-1 comes from the German word Vergeltungswaffen. (Don't mark that as gibberish because that actually the real word in German terms) It was developed at a research facility on the Baltic Sea. 8,564 were actually launched from the port of Antwerp, with 57% of them actually reaching their designated targets. Nicknames that some British used for the V-1 rockets were buzz-bombs, doodlebugs, and flying bombs.
