[About the actual machine]
--The V-1 is a missile weapon developed by the German Air Force during World War II.
--It is a weapon that can be said to be the founder of current cruise missiles equipped with a pulse jet engine.
--This flying bomb was named Vergeltungswaffe 1 and became a propaganda for retaliation against Britain.
――V-1 is the above abbreviation, and the official name is Fi103 because it was produced by Fieseler.
――The V-1 can be said to be the founder of the current cruise missiles, but the control technology at that time did not allow precise guidance with the V-1.
――If you chose an attack on a strategic area instead of a city bombing on London, for example, a port area where the ships of the Normandy landing operation are concentrated, it would have been a threat to the landing war.
--The V1 launched from the ground also used a tilting catapult launch pad.
――In addition, the manufacturing right of Argus As014, which is the engine of V-1, was brought to Japan, and in July 1945, Baika's special attack aircraft for pulse jet propulsion similar to Fi-103R. Development started, but the actual machine was not manufactured due to the end of the war.
