1/72 001 Condor German Missile A4 / V2 With New Ware Project Bumper V-2 / WAC Corporal Conversion - Bagged

Plastic Model Kit

Includes resin New Ware #LK001 Project Bumper V-2/WAC Corporal conversion designed for the (included) Condor kit. Project Bumper started in 1946. The rocket was two states - a V-2 with a modified nose part and the WAC Corporal on top. The first Bumper was launched from White Sands on May 13, 1948. Bumper flight B-5 took off on February 24, 1949 and the Corporal reached an altitude of 244 miles above the earth. This altitude would not be exceeded for years. Bumper was the first two stage liquid fuel rocket. As a combination of the Von Braun first stage and JPL upper stage, it foreshadowed the Juno 1, which would orbit America's first satellite less than 10 years late. The V-2 kit by Condor includes detailed launch pad and excellent painting guide. Never started. The parts are still in the factory sealed bag and includes instructions.
