Operation Diver

Operation Diver was a British military operation during World War II, specifically targeting the German V-1 flying bomb program. Launched in 1944, its goal was to disrupt the production and launch of these early cruise missiles, which were aimed at London and other Allied targets. The operation involved intelligence gathering, aerial bombings, and special operations to sabotage factories and launch sites. By diminishing the V-1 threat, Operation Diver aimed to protect civilians and reduce the impact of this new type of weapon during a critical phase of the war.
