The number of German promising developments for the sea, air and armored vehicles amazes military historians so far, however, in a series of frankly ingenious and "breakthrough" solutions there are also very amusing, although functional inventions. The top ten included the amazing types of weapons and techniques of the Third Reich not mentioned by me in the first part. So, let's continue the list.
10. 8,8 cm Raketenwerfer 43 "Puppchen" (German Puppchen - doll) is a German anti-tank gun.
9. Krummlauf - the device for shooting from shelters.
8. Super-small submarines such as "Biber".
7. Focke-Wulf Triebflugel is a project of the Focke-Wulf vertical take-off and landing fighter.
6. "Karl" - German heavy self-propelled mortar.
5. Horten Ho IX (also Gotha Go 229) is an experimental jet aircraft.
4. "Blom-und-Foss BV 141" - a prototype of a German reconnaissance aircraft.
3. Focke Achgelis Fa.223 Drache - the first serial transport helicopter.
2. Messerschmitt Me 323 "Gigant" (German Messerschmitt Me.323 "Gigant") - German heavy military transport aircraft with a carrying capacity of up to 23 tons.
1. Engineer Horner von Werner patented his project called "Sea Lion" back in 1933. His "subterrine" was supposed to move first under the water imperceptibly to reach the enemy's shores, and then drifting underground, laying bombs for the enemy's military facilities or planting saboteurs.
