[PAR] [TLE] Project Wizard [SEP] Project Wizard was a Cold War-era anti-ballistic missile system to defend against short and medium-range threats of the V-2 rocket type.  It was contracted by the US Army Air Force in March 1946 with the University of Michigan's Aeronautical Research Center (MARC).  A similar effort, Project Thumper, started at General Electric. [PAR] [TLE] V-2 rocket [SEP] The V-2 (German: "Vergeltungswaffe 2" , "Retribution Weapon 2"), technical name Aggregat 4 (A4), was the world's first long-range guided ballistic missile.  The missile with a liquid-propellant rocket engine was developed during the Second World War in Germany as a "vengeance weapon", assigned to attack Allied cities as retaliation for the Allied bombings against German cities.  The V-2 rocket also became the first artificial object to travel into outer space by crossing the Kármán line with the vertical launch of MW 18014 on 20 June 1944.
