Wasserfall missile

Wasserfall (German for waterfall) was a German surface-to-air missile developed during World War II. It never reached operational status although it was well developed and likely ready for operation, and the project was cancelled in February 1945. After World War II, the Wasserfall design was used as a basis for the American Project Nike surface-to-air missile system and it was also the focus of a Soviet research programme under the codename R-101.
