DML (Dragon) offers a 1/35 scale V-2 kit. The fins seem to be a bit out-of-scale. Comes with the Abschussplattform, which, also seems too large for the scale. View this short Tamiya magazine article excerpt.

Mini Art Studio (out of business) used to make some great accessories: Mini Art V-2 Meillerwagen & launch platform (MA3513) (Resin), Mini Art Hanomag SS-100 (MA3526) (Resin). FYI - There is a new Russian company now using the name Mini Art, but it is a different line of kits.

Revell also made a 1/35 scale V-2 kit that comes with the launching table, hard to find, but still around. (Warning; there are a lot of these kits with fins that do not fit to the rocket, they are not formed correctly.)

Accurate Armour V-2 with launch table (Resin) Accurate Armor's kit is quite expensive compared to Revell or Dragon, but it is better. It consists of a three-piece V-2 missile with separate fins; resin, metal, and plastic parts; and Accurate Armour touts, "it is the only 1/35 scale model of V-2 that is the correct shape." Also included are a correct standard pattern mobile firing platform and blast deflector, and a lightweight resin scenic base with steel ribbed foundation plate, 40cm tall. Photos at left: this kit is very detailed and heavy!

Azimut makes these kits and conversions for support vehicles:

Azimut Bussing-Nag 4500A (35028) (Resin)

Azimut Fuel trailer (AH 454) (35043) (Resin)

Azimut V-2 launching base & trailer (35082) (Resin)

Azimut Kesselwagen Opel Blitz conversion

Azimut Sd.Kfz.7/3 Feuerleitpanzer conversion

Fine Cast Models also make examples of the compressor and generator trailers.

Cromwell Company sells: IR sight & batterypack (CA57)

AIRMODEL.DE offers in 1/35 a Opelblitz (conversion VAC-U-SET) for the (Italeri Opel Blitz) B-Stoff tank truck. They also offer a 1/35 (Dragon V-2 conversion set) for the A-4b (winged).

LEAD-WARRIOR (Russia) offers several 1/35 resin kits that look pretty good. The main attention is paid for historical accuracy and quality of the kits, to meet rising demands of collectors. Currently LW is working on line of 1/35 German WWII vehicles, both full kits and conversions—featuring very rare and interesting machines, such as the V-2 battery vehicles. The media used (bubble-free resin moulding and photo-etching) is more flexible than plastic, and allows the modeler to build museum-quality model without reworking and using addition materials. Hopefully, LW will make a Steyr 2000 conversion soon.

P. S. P. kits are sometimes hard to find, and the prices are a bit expensive, but they used to make almost everything needed for you to build your own 1/35 scale A-4/V-2 diarama. Some of these kits may no longer be available.
