Pomeroy bullet
The Pomeroy bullet was designed by New Zealander John Pomeroy (1873-1950) as an anti-zeppelin weapon. Pomeroy bullets were supposed to explode when encountering the minimum resistance of fabric envelopes containing hydrogen gas holding the zeppelin aloft. The explosion might produce a larger hole in the fabric than the small diameter bullet, and the energy of the explosion might ignite the hydrogen in the presence of atmospheric oxygen outside of the envelope.
