I remember reading about the German's V-1s (buzz bombs) and V-2s that
were launched at England in WWII. The buzz bombs were fairly easily
shot down, but there was no warning for the V-2s.

I'd like someone in the know about the V-1s, V-2s, and SCUDS to post
a comparison of them: Payload, Range, Max Velocity, Propellants, etc.

As a bit of humor, Saddam Hussein has shot down at least 11 of our
Patriot missles with his SCUDs.
