Description

The Henschel Hs 293 and Ruhrstahl SD 1400X "Fritz X" Guided Missiles of World War II. This book provides a detailed account of two lesser-known "secret weapons" of the Luftwaffe, the Hs 293 guided missile and the Ruhrstahl SD 1400X "Fritz X" radio-controlled bomb. The Hs 293 was used against Allied shipping and naval forces with some success, while the Fritz X had the potential to cause significant damage to Allied warships and merchant shipping. The book covers the development, operational history, and tactics used against these targets. With a wealth of photographs, illustrations, and technical drawings, this monograph offers a comprehensive understanding of these two significant Luftwaffe projects. The book includes an introduction, appendices with intelligence reports, a bibliography, and numerous images to support the narrative.
