U.S. Air Force Explores Non-Lethal Chemical Weapons in 1994
In 1994, the U.S. Air Force's Wright Laboratory proposed a range of unconventional non-lethal chemical weapons, including a so-called 'gay bomb.' The initiative aimed to disrupt enemy morale through behavioral manipulation, although it ultimately did not receive funding.

The U.S. Air Force Wright Laboratory in Ohio proposed several non-lethal weapons in 1994, including a chemical weapon intended to induce homosexual behavior among enemy troops. This proposal, part of a broader initiative known as Project Sunshine, sought $7.5 million over five years for its development.
Among other ideas were chemicals causing severe halitosis and attracting swarms of wasps. While the concept of a 'gay bomb' did not advance, it reflects the military's exploration of unconventional methods to impact enemy forces. The project's failure to secure funding highlights the challenges inherent in developing such unconventional warfare strategies.
