Something like it's elder brother-
Wing tips rounded, spinner's bigger.
Unbraced tailplane ends it's figure.
One-O-nine F is it's name-
F is for futile, not for fame."

German V-1 bomb decoy
These were stationed in fields a few miles from real launch sites, surrounded with heavy flak guns. Many allied aircraft were lost attacking decoys
