balloon bomb
A balloon bomb, also known as a Fu-Go or fire balloon, is a type of weapon that consists of a bomb carried by a large balloon, typically filled with hydrogen or helium. The balloon is released and carried by wind currents towards a target area. The bomb is either detonated by a timing device or on impact. During World War II, Japan used this mechanism to make attacks on North America. These bombs are often considered to be an early form of unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV).
