Hitler's Terror Weapons: The Price of VengeanceCollins, 2002 - 217 Seiten This title addresses Hitler's use of experimental weaponry and questions whether his campaign would have been a greater success if he had put more of his resources into manufacturing mass produced weapons. Should Hitler have put so much emphasis on the development of exotic long range weapons such as the V-series rockets? Or would he have served his war machine better if those resources had been routed into conventional manufacturing? What effect did the V weapons have on British morale, and was it worth the price? |
