Yep, although if the UK had been removed from hostilities, it might just
about have been feasible to get a GZ into position to launch some sort of
Doolittle-type sneak raid on the USEC.


I saw a documentary that said the Germans were building a submersible
trailer for a U-boat that could launch a V-2.


They quite possibly did. According to reports in 1944, three U-boats
U-24, U-9 and U-19 equipped with rocket launchers were allegedly
deployed against Soviet harbor facilities and moored ships during the
German retreat. If this is true it was the first combat use of a
submarine-launched missile.
