PS. Q 15 - A cheeky one - depends what you mean by 'guided'.........''Captured German V-1 "buzz bombs"
were altered for remote control (renamed "Loons") and launched from a railing mounted on the after decks.
The primitive control system consisted a modified air-search radar sending signals to speed up or slow down,
go left, right or "dump" i.e. dive on the target.''
