Rare | Goliath RC Bomb being used in combat - Panzerarchive #shorts 66

The Leichter Ladungsträger Goliath was a German tracked mine developed in 1940, after the Germans salvaged the Kégresse's prototype out of a river in Paris.

The Kégresse's prototype RC vehicle was based upon British RC vehicles developed during WWI, but because these vehicles were ineffective, they were never used by the Allied forces or any further development was ever started by the Allies during WW2,
But Germany wanted to develop a similar vehicle for the purpose of carrying a minimum of 50 kg of explosives. and would be developed and produced by Borgward.

The result was the SdKfz. 302, this was an electric vehicle steered remotely via a joystick control box.but the vehicles proved to be highly unreliable and would break down with even the slightest touch.
The 302 was also costly to produce and this would result in the SdKfz. 303, a vehicle with a more reliable gasoline engine, but even this version was highly unreliable, engineers crews did not like them and most of the time they would not be used.
After the war, 7,564 were produces and almost all of them were abandoned and the Allies would find scrapyards full of these vehicles in Germany.

The Allies did not see any value in any of these vehicles and would not see any use in the Military after the war, but these vehicles it would set the base for RC technology in the modern military and the RC scale model world.
