[edit] A whole page in the Screenshots thread and only four pictures? Only two posts with pictures (plus one repeat)?

Something's not right here.

That V1 looks pretty menacing Jim, and to think a few years later, the US was experimenting launching the same off subs. The begining of the sub based cruise missile!

Best regards.

I could be wrong but IIRC the Germans were first to try it:

Thanks for that link Jim, a V2 ! Bloody frightening prospect . No mention however of actual launched V1's, I have seen a couple of test films from USN tho. If I remember correctly, back in the day, the model making company 'Revell' also produced a kit, can't remember which class sub it was based on tho

Best regards.

No idea of the era but in RL I do believe Jerry was first.

Followed by this, the USS Grayback.



Sorry for posting real photos in the screenshot thread, but I thought as it was relevant it would be ok
