A-4 (V-2)

The A-4 (V-2) was a German missile developed during World War II, known as the V-2 rocket. It was one of the first ballistic missiles, engineered to deliver explosive warheads over long distances at high speeds. Using liquid fuel and powerful engines, it could reach the edge of space before descending onto its target. The V-2 was a technological breakthrough in missile design, laying the groundwork for modern space exploration and missile technology. Despite its military purpose, it marked a significant step forward in aerospace engineering and rocket science.
