Beetle (tank)

The Beetle was a very small one-man tank made by the Germans in World War II. Also (believed to have been) known as the Goliath tracked mine.Fact|date=July 2008

They were filled up with high explosives and sent over into enemy lines. They were then exploded by remote control to try and cause as much havoc and damage as possible but it was never a success since the Allies kept moving their supplies about to different places.
