Rover somewhere
No details of location !
Looks like a 1949 model to me . The trafficator switch mount on the W/screen frame is off-centre.

V2 on the Meilerwagen transport and erector trailer. Both now at the AWM in Canberra, and currently under restoration. The smaller winged rocket, the nomenclature of which escapes me, is, I think, also at the AWM.

I suspect the smaller rocket is a Messerschmitt Enzian based on: http://www.warbirdsresourcegroup.org/LRG/enzian.html

Thanks
Thanks for the memory jogger, Grant: yes, the Enzian. LRWE obtained a number of rocket-associated items in immediate post-war period, including an Oxygen container trailer, Vidalwagen, and other German items. Sadly, many were sold off/junked.
The airfield being constructed was/is RAAF Edinburgh, South Australia. Mike Last edited by Mike Cecil; 11-12-22 at 20:53.
