Luftwaffe attack on New York

[Jon]

Just a hypothetical question but did the Luftwaffe / German High Command ever consider attempting an attack on New York ?

Yes i appreciate the range was vast but would not a single FW200 Condor perhaps converted for the job been able to make a one way journey drop a few bombs into New York, with no AA defence and i would imagine limited fighter cover and crash into the sea , perhaps near a waiting U Boat !!!.....Yes i know all far fetched but think about it, i am sure it could have been done as other than the Japanese balloon bombs the USA was un harmed. Although the attack would have caused little damage and perhaps killed a few people only it would have been a major problem for the US having to keep some fighters at home and also AA guns with troops etc and also showing the American public that they like the British, French, Dutch etc...were in the line of fire also.

I think the Germans were planning later versions of the V2 able to hit New York but was any other plan such as my fantasy above every considered ?

Could a FW200 have reached New York witha fanatical crew not intending to return ?
