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 minimal 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.

  • A Munição Pomeroy foi projectada pelo neozelandês John Pomeroy (1873-1950) como uma arma anti-zeppelin. As Munições Pomeroy deveriam explodir ao se deparar com a mínima resistência de tecido dos envelopes contendo hidrogénio, o gás que sustentava o zeppelin no ar. A explosão resultante da munição poderia produzir um buraco maior no tecido do que o pequeno diâmetro das balas convencionais, e a energia da explosão poderia inflamar o hidrogénio na presença do oxigénio no exterior do envelope. Contudo, a sua eficácia não chegou a ser confirmada. (pt)
