Armas secretas de Hitler

During the final years of World War II, the technological advances achieved by the Germans were impressive. In addition to planes of the most varied and avante-garde designs, disc-shaped aircraft with never imagined capabilities emerged. To this list, one must add the "wonderful weapons" such as missiles designed for any war-time action, incredible "fireballs", undetectable submarines, sonic and electric cannons, the endothermic bomb, and much more prodigious weaponry.

History would have been different had Hitler not wasted time by giving top priority to weaponry designed for immediate and direct use in the different war fronts. Despite this and despite facing a losing battle in the war, the innovation capacity of the German scientists had no parallel in the world and allowed them to development wonders that seemed to come from stories of science fiction. The Führer realized his mistake too late and because of this, the famous secret German weapons represented a fleeting reality, especially after the storming of the beaches of Normandy.

Durante los últimos meses de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Alemania, abocada a la derrota, se aferra a la esperanza de las armas secretas desarrolladas por los científicos alemanes, esperanza que el Ministerio de Propaganda se encarga de alimentar para sacar el último aliento del antiguo pueblo germánico.

Pero, lo que en un principio podría parecer una maniobra estratégica, resultó ser cierto: los avances tecnológicos logrados por Alemania fueron sorprendentes. La realidad mostró a los vencedores del conflicto que las armas secretas de Hitler eran sofisticadas y peligrosas y que los científicos alemanes fueron pioneros en lo referente a misiles balísticos y tecnología de cohetes.
