A Killer Bonanza

also they made, though not a "complete military conversion", an An-2 into a
bomber. the plane took aboard a couple of bombs, "boiler bombs" as they were
called. each of these was a old gas cylinder filled half with explosive,
half with metal debris, even forks and knives, anything that could act as
shrapnel. They they would stick some plastic or metal winglets and two
handles, since the crew had to take the bomb and throw it manually out of
the plane when they were near the target...

The guys who imported some of them from Africa had to take
the pylons off to make them CAA legal. The Swedes converted
a squadron into tankbusters.
