Ruhrstahl X-4 is a wire-guided air-to-air missile that was designed in Germany during World War II, but its power in actual combat has never been confirmed as it was never used in operations. However, its design became the basis for ground-launched anti-tank missiles by various countries during the post-war Cold War era.

The missile stabilized its flight by rotating, and its yaw and pitch could be controlled by a joystick in the cockpit via two wires connected to the tail.

SC1000 is a large air-dropped high-performance bomb used by the Luftwaffe during World War II, and its name derives from its weight of approximately 1,000 kg. Because of its shape, the bomb was nicknamed ``Hermann'' after the obese commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe, Hermann Göring.

The base paint was sky blue with a yellow line on the tail, but when it was filled with aluminum powder, a yellow silhouette of a sinking ship and a note saying "Nur gegen Handelsschiffe" were stenciled. It was drawn.
