WAR boffins planned to develop a sex bomb that could turn enemy troops gay, secret documents have revealed.
US Air Force scientists wanted to make the non-lethal chemical weapon which would make soldiers put down their guns to snog and bonk each other.
They believed the "aphrodisiac" bomb would cause a harmless but "distasteful" blow to morale and discipline.
The proposals - which have only recently been declassified - date back to 1994 and were part of a six-year £4million project.
Other ideas included plans for a bomb which caused bad-breath so spies could be spotted and one which made troops' skin unbearably sensitive to sunlight, according to The New Scientist.
Officials at the Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio, sought funding from the Pentagon for what they described as the "harassing, annoying and 'bad guy'-identifying chemicals".
But it was not known if the research was ever pursued by government chiefs. |
