V-2 Rocket Engine and Tail

 

The Vergeltungswaffe 2 or "Vengeance Weapon-2" (V-2) was used by Nazi Germany near the end of World War II as a terror weapon against London, Antwerp, and other allied targets. After the war, German scientists assisted the US military in developing V-2 technology to be used for defense and early space exploration. The engine and flight components you see here were used for a research flight and recovered from the White Sands Missile Range.

This is a good example of a construction brick city scene being populated by Brick 1-24 figures. The subject matter is also more mature and should be of interest to AFOLs. Brick 1-24 figures are able to bring a far greater amount of realism to a scene. The story you can tell is far richer and more rewarding. To see more visit brick1-24.com/
