  • The M1 and M1A1 were portable flamethrowers developed by the United States during World War II. The M1 weighed 72 lb, had a range of 15 meters, and had a fuel tank capacity of five gallons. The improved M1A1 weighed less, at 65 lb, had a much longer range of 45 meters, had the same fuel tank capacity, and fired thickened fuel (napalm). Development of the weapon began in July 1940. The first prototype had the designation of E1. The prototype was further refined into the E1R1 model, which resulted in the adopted M1 model in August 1941. These man-portable weapons saw little use in Europe. They were more common in the Pacific, where they were used extensively when attacking pillboxes and fortifications. The M1's unreliability and lack of developed tactics resulted in the failure of the first flamethrower attack on a Japanese fortification in December 1942. The M1 was gradually replaced by the M1A1 in 1943. The M1A1 was replaced by the M2 flamethrower later during the war. (en)
  • M1A1 – amerykański plecakowy miotacz ognia z okresu II wojny światowej. Broń opracowana w 1943 roku, była udoskonaloną wersją pod wieloma względami nieudanego , produkowanego od 1942 roku. Obsługiwany przez jednego żołnierza, miotacz M1A1 ważył 31 kg i mieścił 18,2 l mieszanki zapalającej, pozwalającej na 8 do 10 sekund strzału. Maksymalny zasięg strzału wynosił ok. 41–46 m. Miotacze M1A1 były wykorzystywane przez żołnierzy US Army podczas walk na Pacyfiku, we Włoszech oraz w Normandii. (pl)
