Top Deadliest Weapons of World War 2

What is the best word to describe World War II? When people hear World War II, all they say is "worst war ever in the world". The reason why people call it as the worst war is because of the number of deaths. 50 to 80 million died due to this world war including famine and war-related disease. There is no war, which can kill millions people. Many historians claim that this war was the next episode of World War I. Let's make a simple throwback in the first war. It was revenge from France being embarrassed by German related to their lost in 1870-1871 and German to France related to their Versailles Treaty. Besides, there was also a business competition there. Alliance was formed into two sides. They are Triple Alliance consisting German, Austria and Italy and Triple Entente consisting of France, England, Russia and more. The war started from those countries and some historians claimed that World War II was the next episode of World War I. Starting from Adolf Hitler who coined fascism and he started attacking Poland in September 1st 1939.

There are general reasons why World War II happened. First, the League of Nations failed to create world peace. It was no longer to achieve goals for world peace but just a political tool for big countries. They did nothing when Italy attacked Ethiopia. It worsened when people made block. The two different blocks between Triple Alliance and Triple Entente also had different beliefs. As Hitler attacked Danzig in September 1st 1939, France and England announce their war to German followed by other countries which supported League of Nations in September 3rd 1939. It was not short but it happened almost 6 years. It was the worst World War in human history. They used more deadliest weapon than the previous war. They also used biological weapon killing millions of people. If you think that war-related disease does not exist, then you got to read more history about this world war because there were at least 19 to 28 millions of people died due to disease created by countries who got involved in World War II.



If we see that there were more than 19-28 millions of people died due to disease in World War II, then there must be deadliest weapon killing the rest. Then, what are the weapons used to kill them? We have the list of top deadliest weapons in World War II. It is not about to tell you how worse the world was back then, but how humans were so cruel, but sophisticated enough to invent and produce the deadliest weapons to win World War. Here are top deadliest weapons in World War 2.


Silbervogel Bomber

Silbervogel Bomber

This rocket bomber was created by German in World War II and claimed as one of top deadliest weapons in World War 2 in human history back in 40's. In June 1935 and February 1936, a scientist named Dr. Eugen Sänger published an article about plane with rocket machine in Flug, an Austrian magazine. This made him called by German High Command to build an institution to do a secret research in Trauen. Dr. Sänger then worked together with his staff to create Silbervogel that was claimed to be the fastest rocket. People also call this rocket as American Bomber or Orbital Bomber for its ability to reach Earth's orbit. This weapon was beyond human’s technology back then because it was claimed as the most visionary weapon in World War II. It was a rocket, but there was a person to operate the rocket. The speed was so fast and even fastest back then and the impact was also big. A Deustch scientist knew that this weapon could be the deadliest weapon ever in World War II. The technology are still used and developed in these days.


Yamato Class

Yamato Class is the strongest and toughest ship in World War II. It could bring 72.000 ton. This ship was the toughest in World War II with biggest artillery. They are 18,1 inch cannon with 3000 lb missiles up to 26 miles reach. Yamato with Musashi could bring up to 72.800 ton. Hiroshima Prefecture officially commanded to operate Yamato Class in the end of 1941. Isoroku Yamamoto sailed with this Yamato. In the history, this ship launced missile once in October 1944 and then it went back after attack from Taffy. In April 1945, Yamato was shipwrecked in Ten-Go Operation. Although, there was still Musashi, Japanese marines seemed to be weaker days by days after American attacks in 1944. They operated so many submarines and battle-cruiser. It was not only from battle-cruisers and submarines, but also air-cruisers. Japan then got attacked in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. US attacked using atomic bomb back then.


Explosive Rats

England made this explosive rat to attack German. Churchill played important role and made chaos in Europe as the explosive rats were over there. The dead rats were firstly skinned and then filled with P.E. People found these deadliest rats mostly in boiler room. Then, there were so many explosions in German. When people tried to throw the rats up, they would explode and yes the rats exploded and killed Deustch. It worked like land mine. It had no big explosion when it exploded outside the room. When it exploded in boiler room, the gigantic impact happened and many people were killed by these explosive rats made by England. It could not be called as failed project as England bombed using these rats although Nazi German finally saw and then stopped the distribution. It was ended after Nazi found and learned the technology of those explosive rats. This explosive rat might be the most successful weapon which used animals as the help of weapon or explosion. The disguise and also the power of explosion could be so big and the impact was so dangerous. Moreover, they had been exploded in boiler room and the destruction was beyond expectation and noted as one of the top deadliest weapons in World War 2.



Anti-Tank Dog

Another animal that got involved in World War II after rats was dog. The difference is that the dogs were not dead. Soviet Union trained so many dogs to throw a bomb in front of tank. They trained dogs on purpose to kill German Tank. They were trained in 6 months and targeted to throw bomb in front of tank. It was one of the deadliest ways in World War, but it was not as successful as targeted because the dogs were supposed to throw the bomb and then ran. The dogs just could do suicide bomb. Also, dogs were trained to run near to the enemy, but the time ran out and exploded before the dogs reached to the enemy. US Army also developed this kind of weapon in 1943, but they never used. This anti-tank dog system then is used by Iraq rebellion in 2000 but it failed. Not all the animals used in War are successful because it related to other creatures that can’t be controlled well because they have different intelligence. People should understand that animals need more trains until they are perfect to help humans. In fact, there were not many animals succeeding in World War because the training was not as easy as target. They should do a hard work to get successful Anti-Tank Dog.


T-34 Tank

In early September 1943, von Braun promised to give A-4 technology for the rocket finished. In fact, the technology had not finished yet until the mid of 1944. Hitler back then was not impressed to the A-4 but he praised the dedication of the team to create the wonder weapon and then He agreed the implementation for big number of V-2. US, Nazy German and Soviet Union ever used this weapon in war.

US used this bomb to destroy Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. One bomb is equal to 10 millions of TNT. In August 1945, America dropped atomic bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan. It was the sign of end step of World War II. UK agreed with US to drop the bomb the repetition of Quebec Treaty. Two bombing operations killed 129.000 people and this bombing was the first and the last nuclear weapon in the history. In the end of WW II, US and its supporters prepared to attach Japan before doing bomb campaign. War in Europe ended after Nazi German signed the surrender in May 8th 1945. Japan denied the ultimatum. In July 1945, Manhattan project was released and tested in New Mexico until bombing in Nagasaki and Hiroshima in August 6th 1945. Nuclear weapon has been the most dangerous weapon in the world and now probably it has 70 millions TNT, 7 times bigger than the last nuclear bomb in Japan. It became one of the top deadliest weapons in World War 2.



UN should have prepared and always protected to create world peace to avoid such war. There are so many bigger weapons with stronger power than WWI. It should stay a history forever because world doesn’t deserve war.
