Wasn’t just Von Braun and the V2. Me-262s were built with forced labor. Then there’s the Comet, which was an amazingly bad idea. I’m surprised it wasn’t flown by slave labor, as little as they seemed to care for the pilot’s safety. The fuel was so corrosive that if it leaked the pilot would be dissolved alive.
To be fair to Von Braun, he did have slaves build his rockets.
