Top Ten Secret Weapons Of WW2 By; Nathan Buffington, and Sean Connolly.
10: Vortex Gun • The gun shot large shells composed of slow-burning explosives and coal dust into the air. • The shell would create a vortex that could incapacitate planes. • Targeting shots was very difficult.
9: Canon Defense Light • It produced a strobing pattern that made it actually impossible to see the tank. • In multiple tests, gunners tried to fire on tanks equipped with the CDL but were unable to hit it. • It was never used in battle.
8: Anthrax Bomb • A unique bomb that would contain 30,600 razor-sharp flechettes, each doused in anthrax poison. • If detonated in a crowded area, they could cause thousands of fatalities. • It was never used in combat.
7: Ku-Co Death Ray • The Ku-Go was an enormous magnetron that collected and focused microwaves inside a high powered vacuum tube and directed them in a beam through the air. • It was never used because there was never anything with enough to power it at the time.
6: V3 Cannon • It was a gun that could fire very long ranges. • It was suppose to use a bunch of explosives to propel the ammo a very fast and long way. • It was never used in combat but something similar was.
5: The Great Panjadrum • Hitler built a wall 10 feet high and seven feet thick along the Atlantic so Winston Churchill tried to make something that would get over that wall. • The Panjadrum was a bomb that would rocket over the wall and detonate. • The only problem was that it would fly all over the place and explode. • It was never used EVER.
4: The Rat • The Rat was a GIGANTIC tank With 2 Barrels. • It weighed 1000 tons so every road it was on was crushed making it impossible to use. • So it was never used.
3: Silver Bird Bomber • A Glider that would be launched into space. • It was suppose to travel half way across the world via gliding. • It never worked so The Nazis never used them.
2: Sound Cannon • A gigantic Satellite looking object that made sound waves physically harmful to humans. • Although it worked very well in testing it was too big to ever use in actual battle.
1: Earthquake Bomb • This Bomb was Dropped buried itself deep in the soil. • Then it exploded causing enough force to cause an earthquake. • Unlike most of the weapons on this list we actually used this one and it was effective.
