V1 - Arme du Desespoir, Editions Lela Presse

This is a superb new edition of a much-praised work first published in 2006 and long since sold-out! This 2011 version which includes 60 new plans, 514 new photos and 20% more text (French language) represents a considerable re-working of the original volume. All the chapters without exception have been redesigned and expanded, with a special contribution to those devoted to research, development, technology and the operational deployment of the weapon. A more complete study of underground storage sites has been incorporated along with a more detailed treatment of 155 Flak Regiment, its organisation, its uniforms and even losses. The British counter-measures are not forgotten, from the realistic to the random, shedding new light on certain myths and preconceptions that still exist in the literature. Finally, the consolidated list of sites has been completely revised and corrected and more closely follows the reality of changes on the ground. In short, if the original "V1 arme du désespoir" 2006 was a springboard, "V1 arme du désespoir" 2011 will no doubt come to be considered the most definitive treatment of the subject yet presented in any language.
