Summary

Description
English: The photo shows a V-1 on display on the Groenplaats, Antwerp (in the backgound DUKW landing craft), possibly in the aftermath of a victory parade. Photo taken by my grandfather Jan B.H.A. Vervloedt, now in the family archives. The Fieseler Fi 103, better known as V-1 (German: Vergeltungswaffe 1) was an early cruise missile used during World War Two. The V-1 was developed at Peenemünde by the German Luftwaffe during the Second World War. Between 13 June 1944 and 29 March 1945, it was fired at population centres such as London and Antwerp.
Nederlands: V1 op de Groenplaats te Antwerpen (1945), op de achtergrond staan DUKW-landingsvaartuigen. De foto is door mijn grootvader Jan B.H.A. Vervloedt gemaakt en bevindt zich nu in de familie-archieven.

De V1 was het eerste zogenaamde V-wapen en een Duitse uitvinding uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De naam V1 (Duitse afkorting) of V-1 (Engelse afkorting) was een afkorting van Vergeltungswaffe 1. Eigenlijk was de aanduiding Fieseler Fi 103. Het toestel was uitgerust met een explosieve lading in de neus en vloog door middel van een primitieve straalmotor aandrijving en een simpel geleidingssysteem op eigen kracht naar zijn doel.

Volgens Duitse gegevens zijn 8564 V1’s naar Engeland en de haven van Antwerpen gelanceerd. Hiervan trof circa 57% zijn doel.

Die V-1 wurde in Peenemünde entwickelt. Zwischen dem 13.Juni 1944 und dem 29. März 1945 wurde sie gegen Großstädte wie London oder Antwerpen eingesetzt. Dieses Foto zeigt einen erbeuteten Flugkörper auf dem "Groenplaats" in Antwerpen im Jahr 1945 bei einer Siegesparade. Im Hintergrund parken einige DUKW Schwimmwagen. Das Foto wurde von meinem Großvater Jan B.H.A. Verloedt gemacht und befindet sich nun im Familienarchiv.
