AIR-BOT

Germany devised aerial weapons as well. This picture shows a wrecked "airbot," possibly the world's first self-guided missile. They were carried under various aircraft (such as the twin-engined Me-110) and launched into formations of American and British bombers. This one is seen in a bombed-out airfield, destroyed without ever being deployed.
