What kind of fire support elements does the german infantry company consists of?
I am interested in the german fire support system at company level. So does the infantry coy has heavy weapons platoon or fire support platoon? If it has or not, what type of weapons does the platoon/coy use for fire support (mortars, AT rockets, machine guns, grenade launchers)? How many soldiers does the platoon (manoeuvre plts. and HW plt.) made up of? Thank you!
Modern German army or WWII?
The modern German army doesn’t have any fire support elements at company level. The only mortars are 120mm and these are battalion weapons. Grenade launchers, machine guns and AT weapons are all squad and platoon level items. The MG3, out of production for more than 30 years is going the way of the Do Do, being fully replaced by 5.56x45mm weapons. Each squad gets a 40mm grenade launcher and a Panzerfaust 3.
*New* Russian (East German Designation” PRWU Rocket Troops Gas Mask
Just arrived today, the facepiece is a little bit de-formed, but I’m working on restoring it to its original state. The full set cost only £8.50, which is a bargain for a mask thats hard to find in the UK! It included the mask, hose, hose nbc cover, spare speech diaphragm disks and the carrier

how advanced was the german v2 rocket?
The V-2 Rocket (German: Vergeltungswaffe 2) was the first ballistic missile and first man-made object launched into suborbital space,[5] the progenitor of all modern rockets and a direct precursor of the Saturn V moon rocket. Over 3,000 V-2s were launched as military rockets by the German Wehrmacht against Allied targets in World War II. As many as 20,000 slave laborers died constructing V-2s compared to the 7,000 military personnel and civilians that died from the V-2s use in combat.

Why is Iran showing off an old German V1 rocket as a military achievement?
I could be wrong, but isn’t that what it looks like?
If so, why aren’t we showing off our F4F Wildcats and T3 tanks to compete?

Does any one know about the materials used in the rocket plane engines of WWII?
I need to know what at least 2 of the materials used in the Rocket Engines of German Rocket Planes such as the Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet. I would also like to know what they were used for.
Thank You
I would like to know what parts the materials where used in and there properties related to their use.
As best I recall, the Me 163 used a stainless steel combustion chamber, and the propellants were hydrazine hydrate/methanol and hydrogen peroxide. They called them T Stoff and C Stoff. A big problem was that the propellant lines could not be sealed using rubber O rings, so special packing compound had to be used, which did not work so well. A small leak would easily dissolve a pilot before he could land!
V2 Rocket the first man-made object in Space by Germany
At the end of the war, a race began between the United States and the USSR to retrieve as many V-2 rockets and staff as possible.
Three hundred trainloads of V-2s and parts were captured and shipped to the United States, and 126 of the principal designers, including both Wernher von Braun and Walter Dornberger were in American hands. In fact, Von Braun and his team decided to surrender to the United States military to ensure they were not captured by the advancing Soviets.
In October 1945, British Operation Backfire assembled a small number of V-2 missiles and launched three of them from a site in northern Germany. The engineers involved had already agreed to move to the US when the test firings were complete. The Backfire report remains the most extensive technical documentation of the rocket, including all support procedures, tailored vehicles and fuel composition. In his book My Father’s Son, Canadian author Farley Mowat, then a member of the Canadian Army, claims to have obtained a V-2 rocket in 1945 and shipped it back to Canada, where it is alleged to have ended up in the National Exhibition grounds in Toronto.
Operation Paperclip recruited German engineers to the U.S., and Special Mission V-2 transported V-2 parts to White Sands Proving Grounds, from which programs with animals in space and the Bumper rocket were conducted.
The USSR also captured a number of V-2s and staff, letting them set up in Germany for a time. The first work contracts were signed in the middle of 1945. In 1946 they were obliged to move to Kapustin Yar in the USSR, where Groettrup headed up a group of just under 250 engineers. The first Soviet missile was the R-1, an exact copy of the V-2. Most of the German team was sent home after that project, but some remained to do research until as late as 1951. Unbeknownst to the Germans, work immediately began on larger missiles, the R-2 and R-5, based on extension of the V-2 technology.

How do you say "Team Rocket" in German?
In context, I need it for speculative historical fiction I’m writing in which Wernher Von Braun gets the go-ahead for a Nazi lunar progam in 1942. The "Team Rocket" refernce is also an in-joke for animation geeks like myself.
I’m german.
"Team Rakete" actually sounds great to me, though Team is originally not a german word (well, now it is…).
I assume you wanna have something more catchy, like Dr. Strangelove or something, weird sounding strong words.
Try following:
"Gruppe Rakete" (Grooppeh Rahkehteh)
"Mannschaft Rakete" (mun-shahft …)
"Raketen-Einheit" (means Rocket Unit)
"Komando Rakete" (comando rocket)…just pronounce "comando" a little more german
