Launches of captured V-2 rockets in the United States after 1945
The Upper Atmosphere Research Panel performed experiments on US flights of V-2s.
Launches of V2 by Soviet Union
The USSR captured the V-2 production facility at Nordhausen and assembled their own V-2s. Subsequently, they moved the equipment to the USSR and developed their own copy, the missile R-1.
