The Mitsubishi 1MT was a Japanese single-seat triplane torpedo bomber built by Mitsubishi for the Imperial Japanese Navy. Designed by the former Sopwith designer Herbert Smith it was intended for use aboard the Japanese aircraft carrier Hōshō.[1]

The 1MT1N flew for the first time in August 1922 and it entered service as the Navy Type 10 Torpedo Bomber. 20 aircraft were built, but the aircraft was difficult to fly and unable to operate from an aircraft carrier when carrying a torpedo. The type was soon withdrawn and scrapped.[1]

Krupp Raumer S prototype of the armored land-minesweeper of World War II.
The Krupp Raumer heavy minesweeper vehicle was built as the prototype seen in this picture taken in Germany in May 1945, after the facility where it was housed was captured by the Americans. Apparently this was the only Raumer built and its exact fate is unclear. The Raumer aimed to literally roll over minefield and explode the mines thus opening a path to other troops and vehicles
