Operation Iron Hammer was a plan by the German military to neutralise the Soviet Union's armament manufacturing industry during World War II. Conceived late in 1943, the plan could not be implemented as from early 1944 onwards, the Red Army over-ran more and more of the Luftwaffe's airfields, eventually putting the targets (around Moscow and Gorky) out of range of even the Luftwaffe's most far-reaching weapons.
