COBI® V2 Rocket

The V2 rocket is one of the most famous so-called "wonder weapons" that were supposed to change the course of the war. This construction continues to fascinate many history and World War II enthusiasts. COBI has now dedicated its own building series to this legendary model in 1:35 scale. The rocket features a removable fairing, hiding a detailed interior: a powerful rocket engine, a fuel tank, and a warhead with explosive charge!

The set, consisting of 600 elements, contains:

- A model of the V2 rocket with a detailed interior

- A launch ramp

The V2 rockets (Vergeltungswaffe 2) were the world's first long-range ground-to-ground missiles. They were developed by Nazi Germany during the Second World War, and their chief designer was Wernher von Braun. The V2 rockets were mainly used by the Germans from 1944 onwards to attack London and other Allied cities. They had a range of about 300 km and could carry a warhead of approx. 1 ton. The construction was based on groundbreaking liquid-fueled rocket engines. After launch, the rocket rose to an altitude of about 100 km (which is already space!) and then fell onto its target at enormous speed, making it practically impossible to intercept. The V2 was the precursor to modern ballistic missiles and had a significant influence on the development of space technology after the war.
