BUZZ Bombs doodlebugs V-1, V_2

[pdhinkle36ID]

rootsweb forums are asking about V-1, V-2 bombs. My reading of history includes: The radio controled bombs used at Salerno a V-1 type weapon, they sank 2 or more ships.
later they had the V-1 strikes on UK from Germany and other countries, about the time of D-day, then while the allies were on the borders of Germany strikes against the Liege- Antwerp area.
All V-2 weapons were used against England from the summer of 1944 to the end of the war.
I know I can rely on more input from this forums users, thanks.

V-1 and V-2 missiles were something pretty different from radio-guided anti-ship missiles:
