    This is part of the programme, the part I was referring to, was they found the circular test bed in the middle of a forest I thought it was Poland called the HENGE but it may have been the newly taken over Russianicon areas after WW2, which then proves it wasn't fiction but a fast growing reality.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    One has to be fairly optimistic when you see it was possible using an aero model...............I know its now, but the Germans at the time of WW2 were desperate for any solutions.
    Fitted with the right fire power, I would wager no Allied aircraft would have had a hit on such a spherical object.
    Ground fire a different thing of course.
    This video just shows what an aeromodeller could do and many of the NAZI Scientists admitted after the war thats all they were!!!!!!!!
