of Germany's role as a weapons manufacturer. What considerations were behind a weapons project, what efforts were made by ballisticians and engineers, etc., - this report shows in detail. The thematic focus is on weapons research in the 3rd Reich.
In the field of weapons, Germany demonstrated an often admired power of invention during World War II and in the decades before. After 1945, the result was recorded in many works. It is also made clear how disastrously political and military influences overlapped in German weapons development and not infrequently fought each other.
