What is the single greatest military weapon ever created?

[SSHZ]

Fear.........

Aircraft carriers! And all the equipment on them

AK47. Every video on the nightly news documenting an uprising everywhere in the world shows a crowd of angry young men lofting an AK47.

I would be more scared if they had a pocketful of rocks....lol......cuz they couldn't hit sand if they fell of a camel....speaking of ROCKS,ROCKS have been weapons for A LOT LONGER than anything I can think of

not initially intended as a weapon, but the greatest creation (that also has potential to be used as a weapon) is the internet.

The best and least used weapon in war is the handshake. Handshakes have ended more wars than bombs.

The computer......lol............could be???where would our military be with out it????

The bow. I think it had an even greater effect on history than the spear, with or without the atlatl. We will probably never know. cn

 

[ginwilly]

was gonna say bow, catapult or cannon

I mean, if we are talking all time...

 

[cannabineer]

exactly. Recorded history is much younger than either of those almost-primal weapons. cn

I think it would be between the bow and the slingshot. The first side with the ability to propel ammo through the air (other than just throwing) had to be devastating to the opposition.

OK, as to that, I'll say... the rock is the fist at a distance, as is a mark big, daisy cutter bomb and every projectile strike. Explosion or none.

So, the fist is the "greatest."

Propaganda (false flags, politics, libertarian socialism, etc...)[/QUOTE

Life, you took my answer.... Propaganda is the best military weapon ever, hands down... It has won wars before they even started. Very powerful indeed! The pen is mightier than a sword (paraphrased of course) but so true!

Yup but I'm out of frog. cn

 

[Dr Kynes]

the Welsh Longbow and it's partner the Bodkin Arrow

no other weapon has so effectively closed out an era of military doctrine like it.

 

[gagekko]

Fiat money

 

[Nutes and Nugs]

These may become the greatest weapon.

 

[budlover13]

Answer to OP, the mind.

Naw. That's just an oversized and power toy.

If we get to the phase of making them intelligent or self fueling, then maybe. A UAV is only as good as the program it's running.

The very idea of war, that we are fighting for elites to rule us, in only their interest, without the ruling class there wouldn't be war, I can't see a bunch of citizens raising an army and invading other citizens.
