I could've sworn that a couple of years ago, I read somewhere of a

of me, come up with anything via Google. Did I dream this?


piggybacking on my own message

Naturally, a matter of minutes after posting this question, I found what
I was thinking about: the Fritz X missle.


There was also the Hs 293.

Both were used mostly in the middle of the war, 1943, in the
mediterranean.
