- V-2s used LOX and Methanol(?) (called mumblestoff and otherstoff 8)>>)
- Hydrogen Peroxide was used in the Walther cycle engines in the some of
- the torpedoes and the Me 163 Komet. (there were hot cycle and cold
- cycle and a can't recall the fuel for hot cycle. Cold cycle used the
- concentrated H2O2, with just a catalyst to make steam. Hot cycle used
- the O2 from cold cycle as an oxidizer, with an added fuel, maybe
- methanol....) Cold cycle was used in DFS194 (Me163 test bed), with
- Hot cycle used in Me163 proper.
