This World War II Operation Turned Old Planes Into Flying Bombs*Caleb Larson* *World War II, Europe* Operation Aphrodite was bold but ultimately unsuccessful. *Here's What You Need to Know*: This flying bomb concept turned out to be a major failure. Old B-17 bombers were packed with explosives and turned into flying bombs to take out German U-boat pens and V-2 rocket sites. *Bombs Away* In 1943 and 1944, the German V-missile campaign was in full swing, with thousands of V-2 bombs hitting England in 1944 alone. Something had to be done—the V-2 assembly and launch sites had to be taken out. But how? The plan was simple: use older B-17 Flying... read more
