Flettner rotor bomblet
The Flettner rotor bomblet was a U.S. biological sub-munition that was never mass-produced. Based on the vertical Flettner rotor which takes advantage of the Magnus effect, a force acting on a spinning body in a moving airstream, it was developed toward the end of the U.S. biological weapons program in the 1960s.
==History==
The Flettner rotor biological bomblet was an experimental cluster bomb sub-munition developed by the U.S. Army during the 1960s,〔Eitzen, Edward M. ''(Medical Aspects of Chemical and Biological Warfare )'': Chapter 20 - Use of Biological Weapons, ((PDF ): p. 5), ''Borden Institute'', Textbooks of Military Medicine, PDF via Maxwell-Gunter Air Force Base, accessed November 16, 2008.〕 as the U.S. biological weapons program neared its end.〔 The weapon was never standardized, that is, mass-produced.〔Croddy, Eric and Wirtz, James J. ''Weapons of Mass Destruction: An Encyclopedia of Worldwide Policy, Technology, and History'', ((Google Books )), ABC-CLIO, 2005, p. 304, (ISBN 1-85109-490-3), accessed November 13, 2008.〕 William C. Patrick III said, in 1995, that the Flettner rotor was "probably one of the better devices for disseminating microorganisms."〔U.S. Public Health Service, Office of Emergency Preparedness, "(Proceedings of the Seminar Responding to the Consequences of Chemical and Biological Terrorism )", Uniformed Services University of Health Sciences, Bethesda, Md; July 11–14, 1995, p. 70, via LSU Law Center's Medical and Public Health Law Site, accessed November 16, 2008.〕
