The first known instance of ramming in air warfare was made by the Russian pilot, Pyotr Nesterov on 8 September 1914, against an Austrian  plane.

Anyone else intrigued by the fact that ramming was still a viable tactic in WWII?  T-34s did it vs Tigers as well, btw.

Yeah but if they do it for T-34's people will want the tigers to be able to roll over anything and everything else. ;)

Btw (on topic of the suicide dogs/items)
In the Vietnam war the Vietnese would strap bombs to starved shildren and send them over to the US base. The US soldiers would give them some gum and rations then *boom* No more Soldier, no more child. 
  No more Gum  :'(
