La coupole

Helfaut (F) Pas--de-Calais

Conçu pour abriter des fusées V-2 et d'en lancer quotidiennement des douzaines
contre le Sud de l'Angleterre.

Les intenses bombardements alliés dans le cadre de l'opération Crossbow empêchèrent
les Allemands de terminer les travaux et le complexe n'entra jamais en service.


The cupola

Designed to tockpile V-2s, warheads and fuel and to launch daily dozens of V-2s
aginst London and southern England.

Following repeated heavy bombing by Allied forces during Operation Crossbow,
the Germans were unable to complete the construction works and the complex
never entered into service.
