A fine article, but...

[edit]

Shouldn't it include Soviet use of the V-2 as a sounding rocket, too? --Neopeius (talk) 05:23, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's up to contributors to find suitable material for inclusion in an article. If you can find Soviet era material about any Russian V2 sounding experiments, you could add a paragraph or a few sentences. JohndanR (talk) 01:35, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia covers russian V-2 flights in Spaceflight before 1951. Russian V-2 launches of Nordhausn built V-2s and 6 assembled by NI-88.

The USSR produced a close copy of the V-2, the R-1A which was developed into a Sounding Rocket in thw R-1B, R-1V, R-1D and R-1E versions. The R-2A was further developed from the R-1A. As with the R-1A the R-2A was developed into a Souding Rocket version. As the Russian V-2s were not utilized as sounding rockets, and the R-1 and R-2 missiles were not V-2s, they are beyond the scope of the V-2 Sounding Rocket subject.

I recomend NASA SP-4110 "Rockets and People" Volume I and II available from NASA at https://www.nasa.gov/history/history-publications-and-resources/nasa-history-series/rockets-and-people/
