Creative war techniques were developed during World Wars, including using animals like anti-tank dogs with explosives harnesses and cat bombs to guide explosives onto enemy ships. Other unconventional weapons included a proposed "gay bomb" pheromone weapon, chocolate bombs disguised as candy, and bouncing bombs designed to skip across water and sink ships. Modern weapons include missiles, nuclear bombs, aircraft countermeasures like flares, and unmanned aerial vehicles.

2. Introduction
 During world wars different creative techniques were developed
 Animals were used in war as weapons
 Different countries had their different war tactics
 Germany, Russia, United States had major creative innovation in war
history
 Here are some examples

3. Gay Bomb
 "Gay bomb" is an informal name for a theoretical non-
lethal chemical weapon, which a United States Air Force
research laboratory
 It was suggested that a strong aphrodisiac could be
dropped on enemy troops, ideally one which would also
cause "homosexual behavior"

4. Anti Tank Dogs
 Anti-tank dogs, also known as dog bombs or dog
mines, were hungry dogs with explosives harnessed
to their backs and trained to seek food under tanks
and armoured vehicles
 By doing so, a detonator (usually a small wooden
lever) would go off, triggering the explosives and
damaging or destroying the military vehicle

5. Cat Bomb
 The most creative way to use a cat as a weapon
happened in World War II. The United State
needed a way to guide bombs to sink German
ships
 Somebody hit upon the inspiration that since
cats have such a strong disdain of getting wet
and always land on their feet that if you
attached a cat to a bomb and drop it in the
vicinity of a ship, the cat's instinct to avoid the
water would force it to guide the bomb to the
enemy's deck

6. Chocolate Bomb
 The Nazis invented a chocolate bar bomb during
WW2. It was made of steel with a thin covering of real
chocolate and was detonated when a piece of
“chocolate” at the end was broken off after a delay of
7 seconds
 A chocolate bomb was actually sent to Winston
Churchill, clad in black and gold wrapping, but was
luckily discovered in time

7. Bouncing Bomb
 Once deployed, the bomb would skip across the water over torpedo
nets until it slammed into the target and sunk; once submerged, the
bomb exploded

9. Modern weapons
 Following the creative weapons came the most destructive weapons of all
time such as
 Automated targeting missile
 Nuclear bomb
 Defence mechanisms

10. Flares
 A flare or decoy flare is an aerial infrared
countermeasure used by a plane or helicopter to counter
an infrared homing ("heat-seeking") Surface-to-air or air-
to-air missile
 Flares are commonly composed of a pyrotechnic
composition based on magnesium or another hot-burning
metal, with burning temperature equal to or hotter than
engine exhaust
 The aim is to make the infrared-guided missile seek out the
heat signature from the flare rather than the aircraft's
engines

 Range- 11000km
 Circular error probable ( cep ) - 220m
 Top speed - 8 km/sec
 Type- ICBM(Inter Continental Ballistic Missile)

13. BrahMos
 The BrahMos has been developed as a joint venture between
the Defense Research and Development Organization(DRDO) of
India and the Federal State Unitary Enterprise NPO
Mashinostroyenia (NPOM) of Russia under BrahMos Aerospace
 It can be launched from Ship, Aircraft, Submarines, Ground
Weight 3000 kg
Range 290 km
Speed 3500-3700 km/hr
Warhead 200 kg
Accuracy 1 m

14. S-400 Missile System
 The S-400 Triumf is an anti-aircraft weapon system developed
by Russia's Almaz Central Design Bureau.
 Three Components 1. High Altitude Radar System
2. Command Center
3. Launcher
Radial Range 360 degree
Target Detection Range 600 km
Attacking Range 400 km
Speed 17000 km/hr

15. Bazooka
 Bazooka is the common name for a man-portable, tube launched,
recoilless rocket antitank weapon, widely fielded by the US Army. Also
referred to as the "Stovepipe", the innovative bazooka was amongst the
first generation of rocket propelled anti-tank weapons used
in infantry combat

16. UAV
 Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVS), also known as drones, are aircraft either
controlled by 'pilots' from the ground or increasingly, autonomously
following a pre-programmed mission.

17. UAV
 The use of drones has grown quickly in recent years because unlike
manned aircraft they can stay aloft for many hour they are much cheaper
than military aircraft and they are flown remotely so there is no danger to
the flight crew
 While armed drones were first used in the Balkans war, their use has
dramatically escalated in Afghanistan, Iraq and in the CIA’s undeclared war
in Pakistan

18. Seawolf class submarines
 The boats of the Seawolf class are the most advanced
but also the most expensive hunter-killer submarines
in the world
 The Seawolf class submarines are arguably the
quietest submarines in the world ever constructed
 It is exceptionally quiet even at high speeds. Most
submarines need to keep their speed down to as little
as 5 knots to avoid detection by passive sonar arrays,
while the Seawolf class are credited with being able
to cruise at 20 kots and still be impossible to locate

19. Net gun
 A net gun is a non-lethal weapon designed to fire a net which entangles
the target. Net guns have a long history of being used to capture wildlife,
for research purposes
 A net gun is currently also in development for riot control
