Undoubtedly one of the most interesting weapons used by the Luftwaffe during the World War II, the Mistel. The following link shows a full report and photos, some, rares for me. Hope you enjoy.

Re: A curious german weapon
From the looks of it, it was set up to increase the range of fighter support. Piggy back to conflict zone, detach, fight, fly home. If they did that during the battle of Britain with the 109s the results could've been different.
