The A4 is the forerunner of all types of rockets, both intercontinental missiles and civil space rockets. It was the first rocket to go into military operation in large numbers and was to become a notorious legend due to its use in the Second World War. The idea for the development of this ballistic missile with a liquid propellant came from the German Rocket Research Institute at Peenemunde. The first successful test firing of the A4 (V2 = retaliatory weapon 2) took place on 3.10.1942 and had a range of 190 km. It was first used in warfare on 8.9.1944, by which time approx.12,000 had been built. By March 1945 approx. 5,000 had been fired, 2,000 of which were targeted on London. The A4 had a range of approx. 380 km.
