Aggregate Rockets mod

Some time ago I made a request for a parts pack based on the German Aggregate rocket family, but it was removed.

So this is re-request, as nobody replied to the thread anyway.

It's a little ironic that nobody's ever visited one of the major turning points in rocket science.

Here are a few articles detailing on what the rockets were meant to be:

A-4 (AKA V-2): http://www.astronautix.com/fam/v2.htm

A-9/A-10: http://www.astronautix.com/lvs/a9a10.htm

A-9/A-10/A-11: http://www.astronautix.com/lvs/a9a10a11.htm

A-9/A-10/A-11/A-12: http://www.astronautix.com/lvs/a9a11a12.htm

Aggregate Family: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggregate_(rocket_family)

Somebody please do this, it's an essential era in rocket history and a great addition to the game.

I may have a go at that a9 as it's a cool shape, as they where weapons rather than actual space vehicles is probably the reason for the lack of interest, as once you say put a kerb or two in it the modder would be just making it up, and I know a lot of modders prefer to have some references to work from,

A family of A-4 shaped parts that get continuously bigger, then smaller would allow building everything from the A-4/V-2, to a Tintin Moon rocket, which would actually be pretty cool.

Have a nose part that is 0.625 to a point, the one that is 1.25 to 0.625 curving to match (FL-T400 height or so), then a couple 2.5 to 1.25 curves that are more like X200 height, and maybe a couple modules that are 3.75 to 2.5 (with cargo/habitat). Some big curved fins… very neat.

a long time ago a modder actually made the destination moon rocket, not sure it it still works...
