The Swedish "PanzerKnäckebröd"Following WW2, the Swedish Army acquired schematics for the German "Hafthohlladung" anti-tank grenade and developed the PanzerKnäckebröd, a device designed to explosively sprinkle cracker crumbs in the enemy's bed, thus ensuring he/she would be unable to get a good night's sleep.

The "Slightly Annoyed Cat"The SAC would be floated over enemy territory where the cat, being slightly annoyed, would attack the balloon and land. It would then infiltrate the enemy command centre and scratch the furniture with its claws, demoralising the enemy and in some cases causing allergen-related sneezing.
The SAC never saw widespread use due to a worldwide shortage of string. It did, however, lead to one documented case of a dead sparrow being discovered in the bed of a minor Stabsgefreiter in Berlin in late 1943.
