More info:

The SdKfz 302 Leichter Ladungstrager Goliath, or Goliath Light Charge Carrier, was a remote-controlled demolition vehicle used by the German Army during World War II. It was powered by an electric motor and carried a 60 kg explosive charge that could be detonated from a distance of up to 650 meters. The Goliath was designed to destroy tanks, bridges, bunkers, and other enemy fortifications. However, it had many drawbacks, such as its slow speed, high cost, weak armor, and limited mobility. The Goliath was one of the first examples of a military drone in history.
