. "A flying bomb is a manned or unmanned aerial vehicle or aircraft carrying a large explosive warhead, a precursor to contemporary cruise missiles. In contrast to a bomber aircraft, which is intended to release bombs and then return to its base for re-use, a flying bomb crashes into its target and is therefore itself destroyed in its attack.The term flying bomb is most frequently associated with two specific Second World War weapons, the German V-1 and the Japanese Ohka."@en . .
