WW2'S GREATEST SECRET: What Did British Intelligence Actually Find in V-2 Rocket That Hit London?

Описание: September 8, 1944: An explosion in central London changed the rules of aerial warfare as the British knew them forever . This was neither a V-1 flying bomb nor a conventional bomb dropped from an aircraft. Inspecting the fragments in the massive crater, British intelligence officer Duncan Sandys realized that Germany had created a weapon that traveled through the edge of space, descending faster than the speed of sound. With this new weapon, there was only five minutes of warning from launch to impact, and absolutely nothing could be done to stop it.
In this story, we examine the panic the Allies faced against this unstoppable technology, named the "V-2" (Vergeltungswaffe 2) , Churchill's horror , and the desperate intelligence race (Operation Crossbow) launched to locate, destroy the V-2 program led by Wernher von Braun, and capture its scientists.
• Why were you already dead by the time you heard the V-2 coming?
• How the Germans used mobile launch sites, often hidden in forests, and rapid deployment techniques to fire the "ghost" missiles.
• How the effort to seize the program's scientists (known as Operation Paperclip) laid the groundwork for the Cold War space race.
• The profound irony: the V-2 failed to win the war, yet its fundamental design became the foundation for every liquid-fueled rocket launched afterward, including the Saturn V that went to the moon.
Keep watching to uncover the scientific genius and the ethical dilemmas behind a weapon that terrorized London and launched humanity's first step into space.
