Dandibhatla Vishwanatha Sastry: The Vedic Scholar Allegedly Invited by Hitler for Missile Research

Dandibhatla Vishwanatha Sastry, a distinguished Vedic scholar
from Rajahmundry, Andhra Pradesh, was invited by German
scientists in 1938 to assist in deciphering Sanskrit hymns from
the Yajur Veda and Atharva Veda. These hymns were purportedly
studied to aid in the development of missile technology prior to
World War II. Sastry was renowned for his expertise in Vedic
scriptures, particularly in the application aspects of the
Yajurveda and Atharvaveda. Some sources suggest that his portrait
is displayed at a university in Frankfurt, Germany, as a mark of
respect for his contributions
