Many have read the excellent article of the Great Russian writer A. Nikonova "The Last Myth".
I'll take sin on my soul - a little supplement to this article, sitting on the shoulders of the giant.
A little prehistory - just recall the known facts.
The Communists, having opened their mouths to the whole world (and otherwise would have squandered), began total militarization of the whole country. Grabanuli and killed millions of Russians and representatives of other fraternal peoples, ruined the peasants completely (even where the foot of the Fritz did not go, millions of citizens died in our country after the famine, despite the fact that throughout the war our army was fed by Americans), bought out For the corpses of their citizens, giant military factories, 15 years preparing for total war, accumulated mountains of weapons - more than the world combined. Naturally, everything turned out to be bullshit. Stalin lohanulsya as the last mouse: while scolding against Britain and France, his friend of the commune, Hitler, the leader of the peoples ahead of him and with a handful of equipment and soldiers tossed the entire armada into dust. It was necessary for the people of Russia to again take up their rifles, and to the American bourgeois and worker and peasant to plow for the salvation of the Communists. The war is over, the Americans, tea, not idiots: the Communists Hitler and Mussolini are defeated, why loot the guns - the people will not understand. They took and disarmed: by 1947, military spending had fallen from 41% of the GNP to 4%, even the USS had disbanded, and in 5 years no serial tanks had been made. This is an incredible figure, since before the war in ordinary countries the peace budgets of the military were about 10%, and in Germany too (even in the military 1940 - less than 15%). The missile programs, as Petrovich wrote, of course, were collapsed (von Braun's "finally can" were shoved into a short-range missile). But not quite. Guys from a private company Convair decided on their loot, at their own risk and to work out ballistic missiles and engaged - so, for fun, and their time has come.
The Soviets seized the Allied Poland in 1947, Czechoslovakia in 1948 (and continued to seize other European countries with a silent sapa - Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary), attempted to seize the Allied West Berlin in 1948, attacked the communist Mao mercenaries and captured Allied China by 1950, Attacked Allied South Korea in 1950, flooded with their agents throughout America, dragged down nuclear technology.
And what was happening on the Soviet side, behind the iron curtain, just incredible. Here is a brief reference from the book of Simonov N.
5-year-old (1946-1950). ) The plan provided for the production of tanks and automatic control systems in the amount of 38,250 units. , Including heavy 9450 pieces. , Medium - 22800 pcs.. , Lungs - 6000 pcs.. Production of combat aircraft was planned in the amount of 25765 units. , Including 5,700 reactive ones - and besides this, naval weapons, atomic weapons, missile weapons, air defense and much more. For example, the number of fuses was planned to be three times more than in the war months (Simonov N. Let me remind you, the Wehrmacht has conquered all of Europe from the English Channel to the Caspian Sea, from the North Cape to El Alamein from 2-3 thousand. Tanks (and I ask T1 and T2 wedges not to be called tanks).
Here "nifika" I do not understand in this life: the Communists almost did not have enemies on the continent, so - kids. What did the Communards like-like Philip 2 or any Ludovik or Napoleon or Hitler, get to the English Channel, sit on the beach, sticking out his tongue, and show the goat to the English? And why did the USSR prepare for a total war in general, if it did not already have any enemies. Yes, more: in 1941 we had 40 million. While at the end of the war there were 10 million, the rest were burnt in insane Stalin attacks, so that we had no one to fight in total war, while the USA, Britain and France and their allies fully preserved the military-human potential. There are no enemies, no soldiers - and mountains of arms, then why? For razvlekuhi the Kremlin on parades, probably. The Chinese have a saying that they eat everything that flies, crawls and swims, except aircraft, tanks and submarines. And Sovzepovskie eat, probably, what the Chinese do not eat.
So why am I writing this all? I remembered everything is simple: that the reader should understand the concrete situation of that time and in support of the thesis of Nikonov A. That Sovdepie in the race for space easily overtook a standing person - that's how cool. And really overtaken?.
It is not customary for us to remember the bitter truth, but, in fact, Germany was the first to go into space. The modified rocket FAU-2 reached an altitude of 188 km, and the working trajectory of the missiles passed through outer space, along the line of Karman. So, it turns out, the Germans won the battle for space.
The next question - who specifically did the space achievements of the USSR? As one who is natural, the authors of space are 8,000 German engineers who were taken to the USSR only by the People's Commissariat of the Aircraft Industry (500 more engineers built the Kalashnikov assault rifle), and 5,500 factories from Germany and other countries, Documentation, patents and t. On German technology and documentation, German engineers make "great Soviet missiles" of the FAA-2 family. And "cho" is a cool joke. In general, the core, trained by the Germans, was sent into space to visit von Braun.
There is one more aspect of this very sad story. "In the years 1947-1949. OKB-1 The Queen created the R-2 missile with a range of 600 km. In total, 24 scientific research institutes and design bureaus and 90 factories of various ministries and departments worked on P-2 "(Simonov N. And at this time the most terrible of deaths, starvation, died in 1946-47, at least a million Russians, mostly children. That's who will tell me, why do dying children have your missiles, from whom did you intend to defend the innocently murdered by you? Is your rotten "rocket shield" protecting the dead children, or will it resurrect, but, Sobdepovsky's national, answer? It is very difficult to imagine all this horror of cannibalistic, mean, deceitful Sovdepie, tears come to us, but we must finish this story.
The entire post-war world has already collapsed, the USSR has been preparing for conquest of everything for almost ten years, trying peacefully by force and blood. The starry hour of the men from the private company Convair arrived - they were given a day (1951) to develop a long-range ballistic missile MX-1593 (or B-65 Atlas). The first successful launch was in June 1957, and the world's first intercontinental ballistic missile capable of carrying nuclear weapons was adopted by the United States in September 1959. In 1960, in the USSR, too, the R-7 missile was fully adopted (completely bullshit to protect), accurate to a factor of tens or less, with launch from a special spacecraft, with preparation in 2-7 days. Korolev - genius - did not allow the Superarms to fence the Soviets, fooled the whole top. We can say that the "rocket shield of the Motherland" is a complete nonsense. A "pair" of American engineers from an ordinary private firm went around the whole shoflova armada of the Sovdepia "vlehkuyu" and cleaned it.
