RfarUng “the beginning of a new era in Naval weapons,” the United States Navy fired a captured Ger
man V-2 rocket from the flight deck of the 45,000 ton aircraft carrier USS Midway on September 6, 1947.
This was the first time in history such a bombardment rocket has been launched from ships or a moving
platform. The primary purpose of the experiment, held at sea several hundred miles off the East-Coast
of the United States, was to ascertain if large bombardment rockets could be fired off modern aircraft
carriers without modifications affecting flight operations. The rocket traveled six miles and exploded.
