<h3>The V-1 is a missile weapon equipped with a pulse jet engine developed by the German Air Force during World War II.</h3>
<p>Tt can be considered the founder of today's cruise missiles. The designation "V-1" is an abbreviation for "Vergeltungswaffe 1;" its official name is Fi 103.</p>
<p>In autumn 1943, the Germans began building launch bases for the V-1 flying bomb (Also known as the Fiesler<em>Vergeltungswaffen 1 FZG-76 (V1).</em>) at sites scattered across northern France. The pilotless planes were supplied by rail from production factories in Germany and were prepared and fired from a launch ramp at each site.</p>
<p>Once launched, the V-1 flying bomb, only flew a straight flightpath. This meant the launch ramp had to be pointing directly toward the target area. The determination of distance from the ramp to the target was of great importance since the V-1 used a nose mounted anemometer to determine distance flown. Once the anemometer reached a preset count it triggered a special control valve that turned off fuel to the pulse jet. The accuracy of this system was less than optimal and undoubtedly contributed to the low number of V-1s striking their target.</p>
