There are two separate ways v is pronounced in German; like the English f (mostly in Germanic-sourced words like Vater, Vogel, Vier), and like the English v (mostly in Latin-sourced words like Vase, Virus, Gravitation).
i looked it up and whoops you're right, shows what i pretend to know

weird that german spelling conventions haven't (been) adapted to that, though

most germans have this weird thing where they pronounce the name of the show like "the big bang theory", with just that one syllable stressed, it's super weird.
germans have trouble with the english th so they they usually overemphasise the vowel after it in an attempt to hide that one weakness. seriously, this is taught at schools

well we don't have the sound of the english "w", so there's really no need for v at all (it could be replaced completely by f and w), but i guess removing a whole letter isn't gonna happen
