It occurred to me the other day, while watching the war news, that
the Tomahawk is really the direct decendent of the V1. The SCUDS
are nothing more than V2. Amazingly, the SCUDS are actually about as
accurate as their predecessor. It still astounds me that the Germans
had begun to dabble in a form of robot warefare that would not be
waged until the 90s. The more things change, the more they stay the
same.
