The first V-1 flying bomb fell on London, England, on June 13, 1944. This marked the beginning of the German V-1 campaign against the city during World War II. The V-1, an early cruise missile, was part of Hitler's attempts to terrorize the British population and disrupt the war effort.
An well known country that developed the flying bomb in WW2 was Nazi Germany with the V1 Bomb. However, the flying bomb can be traced back to the US in 1916 but wasn't that successful.
'Doodlebug' was a common nickname given to the German V1 flying bomb (which was rather like an early, crude cruise missile). Also referred to as a 'buzz bomb'.
A doodle bug was an un maned flying bomb. They used to put enough petrol in them to reach certain destenations. when they ran out of petrol they would plumitt and explode doing a lot of damage they were called v1
The first rocket launched as an attack was the V1 rocket, nicknamed "doodlebug
It did have it.
the V1 flying bomb (V1 standing for vengeance weapon) was mainly used to bomb Britain in world war 2, it was also used in other countries but mostly in England
An well known country that developed the flying bomb in WW2 was Nazi Germany with the V1 Bomb. However, the flying bomb can be traced back to the US in 1916 but wasn't that successful.
the V2 rocket was bigger and faster than the V1 flying bomb. the V1 being a flying bomb was smaller and had a pulse jet engine and the V2 which was a rocket had a bigger rocket engine. ACTUAL SIZE COMPARISON: V1: Length: 25' 4" wingspan: 8.32 meters V2: length 14 m (45 ft 11 in)
the V1 flying bomb was invented to bomb England in world war 2 and first flew in 1942 so that meaks it about 58 years old. if this is wrong please correct.
Poison gas was the terrifying weapon of World War 1. The V1 Flying Bomb and V2 Rocket were the terrifying weapons of WW2.
The V-1 rocket bomb, also known as the "Buzz Bomb", was filled with a mixture of ethanol and liquid oxygen as fuel for its pulsejet engine, while its warhead contained approximately 1,870 pounds (850 kg) of high explosive, typically amatol, which is a mixture of TNT and ammonium nitrate.
'Doodlebug' was a common nickname given to the German V1 flying bomb (which was rather like an early, crude cruise missile). Also referred to as a 'buzz bomb'.
the V1:The V1 flying bomb also know as the doodle bug, buzz bomb and V1 rocket, was a missile driven by a pulse jet engine was used by the Germans in world war 2 to bomb England to get ready for the invasion of Britain (operation sea lion) which later was called off, it used a gyroscope navigation system to guide it to its target, the fuel would run out above England and the bomb would fall out of the sky and explode. the V1 bomb had a large launch ramp which meant it could be sighted and bombed and could move. the V2:the V2 was also used by the Germans in world war 2 to bomb the British, unlike the V1 the V2 had a proper rocket engine (newly invented by the Germans) it was much faster than the V1 and had a bigger warhead the launch sites could be bombed because they were mobile and could be towed and set up anywhere. The V2 also was impossible for any fighters to catch up with unlike the V1 which was slow enough that the British invented the Hawker tempest and typhoon .the V in V1 and V2 stands for Vengeance weapon
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.
The V1 flying bomb (vengeance weapon) (doodle bug) in ww2 was invented by Wernher von Braun. please correct this if its is wrong.
The V-1 flying bomb, also known as the "doodlebug" or "buzz bomb," had a top speed of about 400 mph (644 km/h). It was used by the Germans during World War II for aerial attacks on England.
