Another bizarre weapon the Germans developed was called the “Windkanone”, which translates to “wind cannon”. Yes. They looked at the feasibility of shooting down planes with bursts of wind.
They also tried creating a “tornado” gun to shoot down bombers by creating mini-tornados.

Not to be outdone by the Germans, the British also had their own outlandish ideas for weapons during World War II. One of these ideas was for a massive aircraft carrier made of a mixture of wood pulp and ice they called “pykrete”. The program was called “Project Habakkuk”.
