The Henschel Hs 294 was a guided air-to-sea missile developed by Germany during World War II. When launched from an aircraft it was guided to its target by remote control. Just before it reached its target it was guided into the water, where it then would run like a torpedo, propelled by its remaining kinetic energy.
