Until 1943 I´d like to have a first version of a ground-to-ground missle starting production. With much less accuracy as wished above of ocurse.

Regarding a surface-to-air missle I´m not sure ho long it would take to develope somethig useful and visually guided, either based on solid or liqiud fuel. 1944 probably?

How difficult it is to get an anti-tank rocket which is guided through cable I also don´t know...

MCLOS guidance isn't particularly useful unless at low altitude like SeaCat. For low level i think light AA is more practical and would give better results. A missile like wasserfall has limited accuracy and is probably only useful against large boxes of slowly moving bombers. Developing something that could be put into service and give reasonable results is probably a bit further away. A useful missile using beam riding or semi active radar guidance is 1950s. I think its easier to go for large calibre automatic AA guns.

Anyone have any info on how effective the German Föhn rocket launchers were against aircraft?
