Overview

As the Nazi advance across Europe stalled, Adolf Hitler repeatedly told his military advisers and inner circle that Germany possessed Wunderwaffen - miracle weapons - that would turn the tide and bring the Germans ultimate victory. But was he simply boasting out of desperation, or were the 'miracle weapons' real? This book tells the story of the wonder weapons and types of armament that Hitler hoped would win the war: Nazi flying saucers, the V-1 flying bomb, the V-2 rocket, the V-3 heavy gun and much besides. While some are shrouded in myth and conspiracy, others, like their own projects of nuclear armament, we know to have been real threats to Allied victory. With black and white photographs throughout, this illuminating guide explores a crucial but less well-known aspect of the Third Reich, and how close they came to defeating the Allies in World War II.
