On the right side of the image, Davis provides explanatory drawings to help decipher the complex workings of the V2 rocket and its launching process. The drawings illustrate some probable methods of handling and firing the V2s, offering a glimpse into the intricacies of this advanced weapon system. The V2 rocket, also known as the Vergeltungswaffe 2 or "Vengeance Weapon 2," was the world's first long-range ballistic missile, capable of traveling over 300 miles and reaching an altitude of 37 miles. Developed by the Germans during the war, the V2 was a significant advancement in the field of rocket technology and marked the beginning of the space age. The launching of the V2 rockets posed a major threat to Allied forces, particularly during the closing stages of the war. The missiles were fired indiscriminately at targets in London, Antwerp, and other cities, causing widespread destruction and terror. This official photograph, taken in 1944, offers a unique perspective on the development and deployment of this groundbreaking weapon. It serves as a poignant reminder of the scientific and military advancements that shaped the course of history during the Second World War.
