High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Operation Aphrodite was the World War II code name of a secret USAAF program that began in 1944. The United States Eighth Air Force used 'Aphrodite' both as an experimental method of destroying V-weapon facilities and as a way to dispose of B-17 and PB4Y bombers that had outlived their operational usefulness, although only two PB4Ys were modified for the Navy's sister operation, Project Anvil. The plan called for B-17 aircraft which had been taken out of operational service (various nicknames existed such as 'robot', 'baby', 'drone' or 'weary Willy') to be loaded to capacity with explosives, and flown by radio control into bomb-resistant fortifications such as German U-boat pens and V-1 missile sites.
