Wire Guided Glider Bombs in 1915!
« on: August 11, 2008, 08:12:41 PM »
Very interesting article for all you Wierd WWI buffs in the September edition of "Aeroplane" dealing with Dr Wilhelm von Siemens' wire guided wooden glider bombs as launched from the N Classs Zeppelin Z XII and the proposed Riesenflugzeuge longrange heavy bomber. Never used in combat, but an inetersting "what if". 
They were all drawn to the Keep; the soldiers who brought death; the father and daughter fighting for life; the people who have always feared it; and the one man who knows its secret....
