The Cattering Bug
The idea of a plane without a pilot that shed its wings and turned into a torpedo was literally too good to be true. The intention there was to separate the human from the practice of killing, to separate american troops from having to be sacrificed in war. And that was the birth of this idea. Was revolutionary, but at the same time, a failure. But lessons were learned. They learnt that they had to use piloted aircraft to do the bombing because you needed the pilot to guide the aircraft. That in order to be precise, you still needed a human being to make the calm.
