The so called "buzz bomb" or V-1 missile was the world's first cruise missile. The buzzing sound that gave it the name "buzz bomb" came from the operation of its somewhat primitive pulse jet engine, which fired in a rapid series of pulses to generate thrust. It carried an Amitol warhead weighing just under 1 ton.
