Also includes BONUS kits of the Fieseler Fi-166, Blohm-und-Voss MGRP, Skoda-Kauba P.14 and Bachem Ba-349 Natter. In 1939, following successes with the A-4 rocket, the von Braun team began thinking of a much more advanced aggregate series as the range of the A-4 was rather limited. One of the projects was the A-9\/A-10 which was designed to carry a one-metric-ton payload from bases in France to New York City. The A-9\/A-10 was composed of two stages: the winged\/manned A-9 upper stage, and the A-10 boost rocket. The A-9 was partially recessed into the nose of the A-10. The thrust motor would burn for 50 seconds, taking the A-9 to 1200 m\/s. Then the A-9 would separate and burn its engine, reaching an apogee o f 55 km, followed by a long hypersonic glide in the atmosphere. The pilot was to be guided by radio beacons laid by U-boats in the Atlantic Ocean. After reaching the East-coast of America the pilot would lock in the target in an optical sight, then eject for rescue. In late 1944, work on the A-9\/A-10 resumed under the code name 'Projekt Amerika'. Designs beyond the A-9\/A-10 were sketched out as well, adding an A-11 stage would have resulted in a true ICBM launcher. However, only a little data is available on the A-11 after the war.","brand":"Anigrand Craftswork","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53773621887313,"sku":"ANIG4034","price":113.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0865\/4992\/2129\/files\/ANIG4034.jpg?v=1778720370","url":"https:\/\/www.jadlamracingmodels.com\/products\/anigrand-craftswork-anig4034-1-144-emw-a-9-a-10-a-11-luftwaffe-ballistic-missile","provider":"Jadlam Toys \u0026 Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
