COBI® V-1 Flying Bomb

With the V-1 flying bomb set (Fieseler Fi 103) in 1:35 scale, you can build one of the most groundbreaking inventions of the Second World War – the V-1 rocket, also known as the "Flying Bomb".

The V1 was developed by German engineer Fritz Gosslau and was the first weapon to combine the characteristics of an aircraft and a rocket. It formed the basis for later ballistic missiles. Powered by a jet engine, the V-1 reached speeds of up to 640 km/h and had a range of 250 km. This made attacks on targets in Britain possible. The first attacks on London took place in the summer of 1944. The rocket used a simple navigation system based on an odometer, which allowed it to reach its target precisely. The V-1 was mainly manufactured in Germany, in special factories in Peenemünde and later at other secret locations in occupied Europe.

In addition to London and the English coast, V-1 rockets were also used for bombing raids on cities such as Antwerp and Lille. The V-1 was part of the German "V" revenge weapons program and the prototype for later rockets such as the V-2. Although less effective than the V-2, the V-1 rocket had enormous demoralizing potential. After the war, this technology had a major influence on the development of ballistic missiles in the USA and the USSR.

This set offers a great opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the Second World War and immerse yourself in the history of German war technology.
