References to German secret weapons conjure up images of V-2 rockets and perhaps experimental jets, but Hitler's regime was responsible for a vast number of advanced weapons and technological developments. As ballistics expert Ian Hogg reveals here, the Third Reich kept scientists and engineers working around the clock to create cutting-edge explosives, from the V-3, V-4, and Schmetterling missiles, to the rumored German nuclear bomb. Illustrated with 16 pages of black and white photographs plus additional diagrams, Hogg's book is also a history of the parallel Allied breakthroughs, as well as a look at how Germany's innovations influenced later weapons.
