I have no idea what it is, but I'm sure I can see no useful military application for it!

The RFC chappies have tasked us with finding a way to make sure it lands pointy end down in future ... oh, I forgot, they also need a way to make sure it only goes bang after it's left the aircraft. They assure me they have put out a staff target for a bomber capable of carrying it.
