"The Nazi Plan To Bomb New York City." Written by David Myhra, this one hour TV documentary features Oberst Siegfried Knemeyer's plan to obtain a flying machine capable of exploding a 5,000 pound conventional bomb over New York City which would have blankets of radioactive silica (sand) wrapped around it. The radioactive silica would have fallen on New York City like snow flakes causing radiation sickness and death leading the Nazi leaders to believe that they might then obtain a cease fire or some sort of condition surrender from the Allies. Knemeyer had set up a competition between three individuals: Wernher von Braun and his piloted A-9 rocket missile and its A-10 booster rocket, Eugen Sanger and his piloted, reusable, suborbital rocket bomber, and Reimar Horten and his six turbojet powered Ho 18A all-wing bomber. The documentary features on site interviews at the Horten workshop-Gottingen, Sanger workshop-Tauen, and von Braun's Peenemunde Experimental Rocket Center. Extensive computer generated color digital animation by Mario Merino is featured, and of course, on camera comments by David Myhra. |
