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. The Raumer principle has been replicated as, e.g., in the US Buffalo heavy anti-mine truck used in Iraq. http://wrhstol.com/2akuoAt

Soviet ekranoplan KM (Korabl Maket, Russian - Корабль-макет Naval Prototype) experimental ground effect vehicle, better known as the Caspian Sea Monster.

They were known as Flechettes, but were quickly replaced by bombs, as while a brutal weapon (just look at that poor german’s head) they were very ineffective simply because you always needed a direct hit to secure a kill, and that coupled with the inherent poor accuracy of early planes meant more often that not pilots were just throwing away precious steel.
