The components that made up the A4 (V2) rocket, the world's first long-range ballistic missile. The V2's engine was 17 times more powerful than the largest contemporary rocket engine. It propelled the 13.5 tonne V2 to Mach 5 (6,175kph/3,836mph) before the rocket shut off at an altitude of 80km (50 mi) or 264,000 ft. Fun fact, the curvature of the earth was first seen after a captured V2 was launched post-war by the US with a camera attached. For more, see my Facebook group - Eagles of the Reich
