Description
In the summer of 1944 the Germans launched more than 10,000 flying bombs at Britain, most of them towards London. Thousands of people were killed many more injured. RAF fighter pilots flew round the clock patrols desperately trying to shoot the robot rockets down and stop them from reaching their targets.
