Weapons design is surely no exception.\r\n\r\nA group of Quora users sought to answer the question \"What are some historical weapons that most people have never heard of?\" The answers provide an amazing insight into the history of war, and offer examples of some of the most ingenious \u2014 yet impractical \u2014 weaponry ever created.\r\n\r\nWe've highlighted some of the most interesting below.\r\n\r\n[CSSBUTTON target=\"https:\/\/www.migflug.com\/en\" color=\"#F22F2C\"]Book your own Fighter Jet Flight Now![\/CSSBUTTON]\r\n<h3>1. Pigeon-Guided Missiles<\/h3>\r\n<span class=\"KonaFilter image-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/static3.businessinsider.com\/image\/539095d6eab8eab8786ba573-720-360\/pigeon-missile-1.jpg\" alt=\"Pigeon missile\" width=\"800\" border=\"0\" \/><span class=\"source\">Department of Defense<\/span><\/span>\r\n\r\nPigeon-guided missiles (Yes, Literally) were developed by noted behaviorist B.F. Skinner during Project Pigeon. Although the project was ultimately cancelled because of the impracticality of the weapons, the idea of pigeon-guided missiles showed promise.\r\n\r\nThe missile had an array of lenses at the front that projected an image of the target to an interior screen. The pigeons were conditioned to peck at the target on the screen. The pigeon's pecks corrected the missile's flight-path.\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/mnKyOfNuSoo\" title=\"WWII Missile Guided Pigeon Project Racing Homers Used\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mnKyOfNuSoo?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ckYDrGw0lGY\" title=\"How Do Pigeons Find Their Way Back Home?\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ckYDrGw0lGY?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<h3>2.

Each bomb would contain 40 hibernating bats, each of which would be strapped with a small napalm bomb and a timer.\r\n\r\nThe bombs could deploy their own parachutes, giving the bats time to fly out and look for places to roost. They would soon after\u00a0explode into thin air, potentially burning down whatever structure they had chosen as their new home.\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NAv8G8jfuGQ\" title=\"The Bat Bomb | Top Secret Weapons Revealed\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NAv8G8jfuGQ?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<h3>3.

In a desperate attempt at staving off the Nazi advance into their territory, the Soviets strapped dogs with explosives and trained them to run under German tanks. Quite sad.\r\n\r\nSoviet propoganda claims that more than\u00a0300 German tanks were successfully destroyed in this manner. The anti-tank dog program continued until the late 1990s, reportedly 1996.\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/fcRmbOXvDU4\" title=\"The Future Of The F-35 And The U.S. Air Force Fighter Fleet\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fcRmbOXvDU4?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<h3>4.

These smaller nukes were limited-yield weapons that would be launched from the ground at targets on the battlefield. Nuclear artillery was delivered with shells and short-range rockets.\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" hcb-fetch-image-from=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/XT5jo7aZzTw\" title=\"May 25, 1953; 280 mm Canon Fires Nuclear Weapon\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XT5jo7aZzTw?feature=oembed\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\r\n<h3>5.

These torpedoes were manned and were a variant of the suicide weapons that Japan resorted to towards the end of the war. The torpedoes were launched from submarines and the pilots of the torpedoes could steer the weapons as necessary to inflict maximum damage against an enemy.\r\n\r\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"
