Vergeltungswaffe V-3

106k SimpleFlow  7.9 years ago

Hey everyone! I proudly present to you the first V-3 on the site!

I decided to make something different from planes today so yeah, here you go!

History:
The V-3 (Vergeltungswaffe 3) was a German World War II supergun working on the multi-charge principle whereby secondary propellant charges are fired to add velocity to a projectile.
The weapon was planned to be used to bombard London from two large bunkers in the Pas-de-Calais region of northern France, but they were rendered unusable by Allied bombing raids before completion. Two similar guns were used to bombard Luxembourg from December 1944 to February 1945.
The V-3 was also known as the Hochdruckpumpe ("High Pressure Pump," HDP for short), which was a code name intended to hide the real purpose of the project. It was also known as Fleißiges Lieschen ("Busy Lizzie").

    Weirdest of the three V-weapons. It didn't really have a future. The V-1 became the ALCM and probably a land based variant, and the V-2 became the ICBM and the Saturn V.
