German Jets & V1 & V2 Flying Bombs of WWII
German Jets & V1 & V2 Flying Bombs of WWII
From the Cover:
Turning its attention to the skies, this documentary program explores the design and creation of revolutionary new German weaponry used during the air battles of World War II. Segments focus on the Messerschmitt Me-262 fighter, the V-1 Flying Bomb warhead and the more advanced V-2 Rocket of the Nazi Luftwaffe. Extras include an interactive quiz designed to test your knowledge on everything you learned from the program.
Review:
Stunning footage of the first combat jet aircraft, the Me 163 and the Messerschmitt 262. Heinkel’s pioneering efforts and his pre-eminent He-280 are acknowledged, the Komet is shown in flight (scary!), and the A-4 rocket receives plenty of coverage, especially the complex launching procedures. The Me-163A, the most radical aircraft of the war, reached a speed of 623 mph, when released from a bomber. Me-163B pilot Schubert shot down 2 B-17s in one sortie, and some of that gun camera footage is shown. 1400 Me-262s were produced and only 200 served in combat, later in the war than they could have, but those few changed aviation forever. These planes could have been in the air 2 years sooner, but the Luftwaffe envisioned a short war, and these types were not seen as a design or production priority. Hitler’s insistence that the plane be a bomber, not a fighter, was not what that kept it from earlier service, but Juncker’s inability to design the new JU-004 Jumo engines under difficult conditions, e.g., no nickel, chromium, or aluminum. Along with the Wings of the Luftwaffe series, this program, Luftwaffe Nr. 7, is the best I’ve seen on Luftwaffe jets. Correct title, from the program itself, is “German Jet Fighters, German Jet Bombers, and V Weapons.”

These are great movies to watch. A good thing to learn and analyze to remember the things that had happen in the past. Tom Cruise might need a payday loan if the early reviews of his film “Valkyrie” reflect what it will make at the box office. Most critics think Cruiseâââ‰â¢s performance was mediocre, and some even think it ruined the film. So much for the glory days of ââ∠âTop Gunâââ¬Ã and ââ∠âMission: Impossible.âââ¬Ã I donâââ‰â¢t know if Iâââ‰â¢ll be seeing the film or not. I love that they made a movie about an assassination attempt on Hitler, but Iâââ‰â¢ll be really disappointed if it makes a mockery of such important, serious subject matter. I know Tom Cruise will never need a payday loan. But if he ever wanted to apply for one just for fun, you know, to see how the other half lives, he better do it while he still has a payday coming up. For more about why Cruiseâââ‰â¢s paydays might be coming to an end, check out this article on the payday loan blog.

Hi all,
Sorry that I never had check these comments before, I’m not really an internet person. Are you still having problems with those rar files? It is strange, at least. I could post a new set, if needed.
Regarding Kingtiger and Jagdtiger question, there is something in the Tiger episode. I’d love to get more in any of those, but I guess that it is hard.
cheers to all,
Edu
