Why were German rockets so ineffiective in world war 2?
German rockets and all bombs could not be dropped precisely on locations because they did not have that capability during World War Two. It wasn't until the Viet Nam War when the armed forces had missiles that could get within 10 feet of the place they wanted to strike. Now we have the smart bombs and missiles that can hit targets within a few feet. We can also tell the missile or bomb when to take off and where to strike. __ By today's standards, the V1 and V2 rockets weren't successul. But they caused a great deal of fear and destruction. It is estimated the V2 alone caused 8938 deaths and 25,000 were seriously injured. Over 3000 were launched and about 500 doodlebugs hit London and other targets. Rocket technology was still in its infancy and was not reliable. It was new and untested. Like all new technology, they didn't work correctly at first.
Who were the historical personalities involved and their roles in Bay of Pigs invasion?
John F. Kennedy-the president of the United States at the time. He approved the invasion, but at the last minute (in a moment of fear and worry) called off the air strike that would have aided the Cuban Refugees and potentially made the invasion a US victory. Fidel Castro-the dictator of Cuba at the time. He was moving in nuclear weapons from communist Soviet Union. The Soviets installed nuclear missiles, leading to the Cuban Missile Crisis, under the ruling and knowledge of Castro. Castro knew the opposing ideologies of COMMUNIST Soviet Union and CAPITALIST United States, therefore causing a direct problem with the Soviet Union having missiles so close to the US. That's why the Bay of Pigs Invasion occured in the first place. This also occured because of the gaining of power of Fidel Castro and the oppsition of the Cuban people. You could also say that the leader of the Soviet Union at the time was an important personality. It depends on the depth you are trying to reach.
