The British and the Russians both wanted to strap wings to tanks to glide them onto battlefields, did you know that? The Russians even got as far as flying one. The pilot jumped out, I think. The tank created a lot of drag.

The one that intrigued me was the germans were supposedly working on a flying saucer aircraft but the designs got nicked by the americans.
