As you know, a real spy is not the one who shoots, explodes and destroys a lot, but the one who quietly and stealthily steals vital information... However, even real scouts are sometimes forced to use weapons - and the blow must be unexpected and deadly. What does a spy weapon look like? Here they are - 10 most dangerous toys of a secret agent.

1. Lighter.
Each spy should always have two things with him: a lighter that looks like a pistol and a pistol that looks like a lighter. There are no problems with the first: such a device can be bought at any street stall. But on the second, engineering minds have been constantly working for half a century, and they have obviously achieved certain successes.



2. A pack with a secret.
A cigarette is as familiar and harmless as a lighter. But it is almost impossible to hide a pistol in it: it is too thin. But a way out was found - a pack of cigarettes can become a deadly weapon.


3. Happy hours.
The question "What time is it?" often asks together with the question "Will there be a fire?". However, a real spy will not be at a loss even here, because he has a charged chronometer in his pocket.


4. Ring of permissiveness.
The creators of this gadget made sure that the spy always had a weapon at hand - or rather, on his hand. But they forgot about covering up their engineering solutions - as a result, the ring looks not at all harmless, but very suspicious.



5. A cane-semiautomatic device.
Ordinary intruders hide stilettos in their canes - and a scout is always unpredictable. His cane can contain nine grams of lead, ready for a combat mission.


6. Dangerous cross.
When something needs to be hidden, nothing is sacred to spies. This blasphemous cross pistol exploits the religious feelings of the police, who hesitate to take a closer look.


7. Hidden Blade.
Although spies have learned to hide firearms, the rumble of a shot cannot be easily disguised. That is why they did not stop using knives, and even got the hang of disguising them as the most harmless objects. An example of this is this comb.


The stiletto can even hide in a ballpoint pen. You don't have to be a talented writer to master a sharp nib!


8. Shocking lipstick.
Neutralizing an opponent doesn't necessarily mean killing. To get an enemy out of the way, you can stun them with a good electric shock. For this, the spy woman will be served by such a gadget: a tube of lipstick with an electric secret.


9. Electric cane.
A male scout who constantly walks around with lipstick may be misunderstood. And here

    Become fearless. When you go to your espionage business, you find yourself in not the safest situations (known as the "danger zone"), this can have certain consequences, there will certainly be many unknowns associated with this. Can you handle it? Did we say that your only weapon can only be a quick mind and resourcefulness?

    • The answer is yes, you can handle it. Begin to involve yourself in strange situations - the more you can handle whatever happens to you, the less you will be dumbfounded by the information you receive and the strange people you meet.

  1. Get smart. This is more than a reference to a 60s TV show - you have to have a great mind to really spy on high level... No wonder they talk about "collecting information"! Expand your knowledge and become a master of your craft. After all, knowledge is power.

    • Learn a little about everything. That way, when your target says something like “God, I just adore everything that Picasso created during his blue period,” you can answer something sensible, keep the conversation going and bring the other person to the topic that you need. The more you know, the more you can pursue potential sources of information.
    • Read books on espionage and spies. Based on just watching James Bond, you won't be able to achieve much in the real world. This is all very interesting, but not real; choose books and electronic sites on which real spies can learn, gain knowledge that spies can put into practice. Television programs can also help, but anything related to science fiction should be suspicious.

  2. Be creative. Your best bet is to start relying on yourself to answer any questions. You may not have all the equipment you need at first, so your key to success will be being able to sort out the situation and problems with what you have.

    • You will find the methods and recommendations later on this page, but simply thinking outside the boundaries of habits will already be the first step of a real spy. Anything can be a hint to you, anyone can come in handy. How can you manage the people around you so that you can reach your goals faster?

  3. Find a day job. You know even Superman had a job. Unfortunately, most spies require a cover where you are an ordinary person with your habits. If you constantly tell everyone that you are "doing something", then in the end the thread will lead to you. On the other hand, you already have a cover story ready and it will be true.

  4. Take care of your fitness. While fighting and fighting is something that any spy avoids at all costs, being in good physical shape will be needed so that you can spend all day on your feet, spy on someone, or quickly disappear. Emphasize walking / running long distances, exercise the strength of your arms and legs, and maybe also self-defense.

    • Learn parkour, it can also come in handy in espionage. Not only do you need to move quickly between obstacles, but you need to imagine the world around you in the same way, think about the fastest ways to solve problems. Along with training your body, you will train your mind.

    Be unnoticed

    1. Hide in the air. The most important thing for a spy is to be able to dissolve. Don't think about adding a nice suit or chic sunglasses to your look; have different wardrobes every day for different places and situations. Wear a dark outfit if you are going to a punk cafe, or bring a bag and camera if you want to melt into a group of tourists.

      • If you don't know what the scene will be like, then you can always safely hide behind your work. You are the easiest worker to have a drink after a hard day. Take a newspaper, your folder, and there will be nothing suspicious about you. Add accessories to your daily spy wardrobe if needed.

    2. Use the minimum amount of clothing. Fewer things mean more mobility, so only wear the things you need that are important to your work and survival. Do not carry weapons with you, they are not only dangerous and illegal, but they can also betray you if you get caught.

      • If you are attacked, then invent a weapon from the objects around you; it is better to learn in advance martial arts in order to "protect" yourself (never attack).
      • If you feel that a conflict is approaching, then rely on your words first. Spies are masters of manipulation; they can make people believe anything. You can even smile and wink at someone for added effect.

    3. Take part in what is happening around you. If everyone around you is eating ice cream, drinking coffee, and buying hot dogs, then do the same so that you disappear into the crowd. It's okay to even watch people, but don't overplay. Keep things simple, otherwise you will become visible (especially if you are very good at it). At the same time, you will not be able to quickly disappear if you are busy with something difficult, for example, if you find yourself in a room with closed locks or if you need to get through a crowd of people.

      • When mothers have babies, they often start sleeping with "one eye open." You need to learn to look like you are enjoying your hot dog while you follow the bearded man to your left. Practice with your friends in normal situations first, and ask if they notice that you are distracted or look strange. Watch your body.

    4. Remove your pages from the internet. Staying incognito in the real world is not helping yourself if anyone can find your profiles, photo albums, and blogs. Be online everywhere, but do it on the sly. You cannot allow anyone to recognize you.

      • It is possible. You can live without Facebook. It may not be easy, but you can. If people start asking you, you can always say that you are avoiding modern technologies, that you cannot rely on them. After that, the questions will stop.

    5. Never run in a crowd. This is a universal signal for everyone to pay attention to you. If you have to run, you better pretend to be a hurrying worker rushing back to the office to get to the meeting, you can tell people "I'm late for the meeting, I'm sorry and I'm sorry!"

      • In fact, you should get as little attention as possible. The more people notice you, the less likely you are to go unnoticed. But know that not getting attention doesn't mean being quiet - it means being quiet enough to go unnoticed.

    6. Do not be nervous or give yourself away if you are noticed. Stay calm and normal to convince everyone to drop their suspicions. If you notice that you are also being followed, then do not get up right there and leave, this will only worsen the situation. Wait for a good chance to leave.

      • The human mind is very malleable. If it seems to you that someone is following you, then change your tactics. Maybe you were hiding behind your newspaper for too long, and your peeping noticed - then it is then that you have to call your friend and ask him where he wears it - and that you have been sitting here alone, reading the newspaper, for half an hour!
        • Another option would be to walk up to the party and ask what is going on with them. With good intentions, of course, so your directness will relax them.

    7. Know when to keep quiet. If you follow someone with short distance, then absolute silence is the key to success. Do not breathe too loudly, do not move noisy, do not wear clinking accessories. You can tune in to the sounds the environment(the easiest way is to the sounds of crowded places), but if you are alone in the park, then you are at great risk.

      • To make things easier for yourself, before starting the mission, study the area, as well as all the doors, animals, cameras, etc. Check out the area. This will come in handy later.

    8. Disguise yourself. That's right, this is not necessary, but it can be useful to you - it is not necessary to be able to do it well! In fact, sometimes looking defiant means removing all sources of doubt and suspicion from yourself. If it is necessary for the situation, then do not forget about it.

      • Wear scary sweaters, big glasses, and if you have noticeable hair (like red, blonde, or long dark hair), consider a simple haircut or wig. It's more fun for you!

    Spy Techniques

    1. Learn to eavesdrop. It's hard to hide the fact that you're eavesdropping on a conversation when no one is around, but it's even harder to pick up individual voices when you're trying to blend in with the crowd. Eavesdropping will help you gather more information even in the most difficult places.

      • Let be modern technologies become your best friends. Put on your headphones or just start playing Candy Crush. Do something, but keep the sound to a minimum - otherwise you won't hear anything!

    2. Learn to lip-read. When the person you are following is out of earshot, or simply inaudible due to the surrounding noise, then lip reading can be your advantage. You can eavesdrop on dialogues from a distance using binoculars or a camera.

      • To practice, watch a silent movie with subtitles to get used to how words are articulated. Once you get it right, remove the subtitles and see what you understand. First, take a movie that you already know very well.

    3. Become an expert in lying and defining lies. In the end, whatever you find will mean nothing if the information is full of lies. Learning to read body language will also help you to understand people.

      • The hardest part here will be that you cannot accuse anyone of lying. The same applies to body language - you cannot walk up to this person and tell him that he is standing in this position because he is talking to his mistress, not his wife. To find out if you're right, you need to watch (or eavesdrop) further.

    4. Learn to spy on someone without being noticed. People don't stay in one place for a long time, so you need to know what to do when the person goes somewhere. What is your reason for going the same way?

      • Always have a backup plan in case you get noticed. For example, try to get in your way, for example, newsagents - in case someone suspects that you are following him, you can just go "about your business."

    5. Steal things without being noticed. Your suspect may be carrying something that can be very important evidence, or you may steal something so that you can later use it as a ransom in exchange for information. As already mentioned, you need to take advantage of the situation around you in difficult moments, so it can come in handy if you steal something useful that will help you get out of a difficult situation without drawing attention to yourself.

      • Try to steal something small from your friends, like a pen or folder, and return it back unnoticed to practice.
      • Don't take this advice as a call to start stealing. This article assumes that you are on the side of good, not evil.

    6. Find technology. You no longer need to hide in corners and lip-read with binoculars. With the amount of equipment available on this moment, she can spy on you!

      • While you may encounter some legal issues (we warn you), you can set up cameras where your target will be in order to review the recordings later. Arrive early, set up your equipment and go about your business. Proof? Ready.
      • Spy on your computer. Nowadays, not only specially trained personnel can understand computers. If you get access to someone else's files, then you no longer need to specifically monitor them. You can do this by controlling everything with the keyboard.

    7. Improve your vision in the dark. The most hidden things happen in the dark, so you need to be sure that you see what is happening. And although you are an ordinary person (... right?), Which means that you can hardly see in the dark, there are several things that can help you.

      • Start working in the dark. Your eyes will adjust faster over time, and you will be less stressed from temporary blindness, which will allow you to move faster and respond faster in the dark.

    8. Improve your memory. All the knowledge of the world will not help you if your memory is not developed. Constantly work with memory games, ask yourself questions about the details of events. Over time, you will become more observant and the facts will be remembered better.

      • There are several tricks (rhymes, mnemonics) that you can use. If you can't remember anything, don't be alarmed. Everything will work out over time.

    Protocol

    1. Determine in advance where to meet with your partner. Do not meet in the same place, so you will become suspicious and you will attract unnecessary attention. People think that spies are found in dark alleys and the like, so choose an ordinary place (cafes, canteens, libraries, etc.) or public places (parks, museums).

      • There are many reasons to meet, but "business meetings" are the best cover. Plus, in this case, the noise around you will play into your hands - you definitely do not want anyone to hear you.
      • Remember that in noisy places you will be safe. Many places are too large to be searched (or even monitored), and full of witnesses. However, avoid areas with surveillance cameras.

    2. Carry a change of clothing with you if you are being monitored. So you can dissolve in the crowd. As a last resort, you can quickly put on a hat or jacket.

      • Or conversely, it may be easier for you to put on a lot of things so that you can take them off later. If this is so comfortable for you, then wear clothes that are comfortable to combine.

    3. Do not carry any identification documents with you. If the situation calls for it, then take a fake ID with you. Remember that you have all the technology and equipment on your side, so your story must be thought out.

      • Do not make a fake passport or anything that can be quickly checked, otherwise you will have problems with the law; instead, carry with you a postcard or envelope with a fictitious name and address, you can always say that you forgot your passport at home.

    4. Gather information before going on a mission. Take advantage of those hours, days and weeks before it starts to explore the area, learn all the routes, and get people to get used to you. This will make you much more comfortable.

      • It's good if you have a satellite map of the area, as a last resort, use Google maps... You can even see the facades of the buildings and all the lawns - what else do you need?

    5. Find out the habits of the person you are following. This way you can predict his next move. Find out what car he drives, his number, with whom he communicates, etc. If you can be one step ahead in the game, then you will be better off.

      • Search the Internet for everything about him. Depending on how you are connected, you may have an idea about it. social networks and what he does - that can lead you to the right places.

    6. Consider finding yourself a partner. It is very good to have more than one spy - at least for monitoring the territory and for safety net. Teamwork is essential for all spies. Communication will help in everything; recommended daily gestures, predetermining actions, or simply electronic device for communication. It's best to choose something discreet.

      • You can discuss plans in more detail with your partner. Alone, you might be missing something. But with a partner, you will need to determine the vantage points, communication protocol, possible movements, and plan B.
    • If you are on a mission in the dark, black clothes will not help you; Wear clothes in colors such as gray, dark purple, and blue. Black makes you suspicious, so you only stand out unless you are in a facility where everyone wears black (usually in downtown business districts). Brown will be even more the best choice because many people don't notice it either.
    • Create a sign language that only your team can understand, but don't make it too complicated or suspicious.
    • Instead of avoiding being seen by the police or people who might suspect you, approach them yourself and ask such a stupid question, how to find your way somewhere. If you are not a threat to them, then they will not even think to suspect you.
    • The main headquarters should be either in a remote area or under very good cover. Try organizing an office, meeting room, and computer room.
    • Professional spies are trained in different techniques under different conditions. You can adapt to some of the techniques to improve your spy skills; just remember that you can only improve something if you practice a lot.
    • Knowledge of foreign languages ​​can be very helpful. If you are working with anyone else, then come up with your own language or code.
    • If you know well where you are spying, it is best to plan ahead how to get inside and how to get out. This will be very useful to you. Don't forget about security cameras, if there are any.
    • If you are spying on the inside, try wearing something soft (or just socks) on your feet to move around quietly.
    • Write it all down in a notebook, transfer it to your computer, and throw out the original. Remember that your computer can be stolen or checked, so come up with another option for electronic media.
    • Learn to pick locks.

    Warnings

    • You have to be very careful even with your closest friends. You never know who will be next to you in different situations, and your friends can betray you at the most inopportune moment. Even your boss can be the bad guy! Therefore, be careful, do not trust people around too much.
    • Always obey the law. Once in jail with the phrase "I tried to help," you are unlikely to earn yourself respect from the outside.
    • If you are spying to collect data, then avoid any crimes, such as burglary and entry, damage to property, etc. It will be obvious who did all this if you start publishing information about this case on the Internet or in the press.
    • Remember: you can face different legal consequences in most espionage cases. For example, you may be accused of stalking. Be neat.

So you look at these 007 agents and you think: what is true of this? Do they really have such supercars and such fun gadgets? It is worth saying that the James Bond films, although fiction, are very true in some cases.

Here we have a small overview of the spy gadgets that were in service with the intelligence agencies of various countries. Something was used in the KGB, something in the CIA, and something in other countries, which cared about their state interests as much as the superpowers. So, what were the saboteurs, scouts and spies of the past armed with?

The kiss of death

This is not the poisoned lipstick that a compromised spy used to kiss opponents to death. Everything is much more prosaic: what looks like lipstick is actually a gun with a bullet. It is very convenient to urgently settle matters.

Buttoned camera

Ajax is the development of the so-called "bloody gabney". The lens of this spy camera was placed in a button, and the launch was made from a pocket. In fact, this is just one camera from a huge arsenal of similar tools used not only in the USSR, but also in the USA and European countries.

Spy Umbrella

This is also the development of the KGB. Who could have guessed that an elegant gentleman with an umbrella in his hands was actually a cold-blooded killer. With the help of such a gadget, the Bulgarian dissident and writer Georgi Markov was eliminated in 1978. He was pricked with an umbrella at a bus stop and died three days later.

Houdini's set

A real spy kit that the scouts hid in ... the rectum! It was actively used in the 1960s and gave a chance to free oneself from captivity or break into a safe. We hope that not a single rectal capsule was opened during transportation.

Spy glasses

It is worth saying that the spies were well aware of what they were doing. Therefore, in addition to the instruments in the anus, many also had cyanide. A small capsule was hidden in glasses, and if it suddenly happened that a spy was discovered, then he had a choice: die quickly and painlessly, or be subjected to cruel torture and still die.

Hydrocyanic acid gun

A similar pistol was used by Soviet agent Bogdan Stashinsky to eliminate the ideologues and leaders of Ukrainian nationalists. This is how Lev Rebet and Stepan Bandera were eliminated in the late 1950s. The pistol fired explosive capsules of acid into the victim's face, which inevitably led to cardiac arrest.

Bug in heel

This is an invention of the Romanian intelligence officers who followed the American diplomats. The Americans did not buy anything in local stores, they were sent parcels, which were carefully intercepted. And then it's a matter of technology. Diplomats sometimes could not understand where the information was leaking from, because there were no bugs anywhere.

Poop transmitter

This is not dog poop, as you might at first think, but a disguised CIA radio beacon that pointed American bombers at the target. Such beacons were actively used in the 1970s.

Pistol tube

This device was in service with the British troops special purpose During the Second World War. From such a tube, it was possible to eliminate the enemy at close range. To fire the pipe, you just had to turn the mouthpiece.

Steineck Camera Clock

This watch was collected in post-war Germany. The spy could take pictures when he supposedly looked at the time. Alas, it was impossible to focus, so we hoped for good luck. The clock contained 8 photographs.

Strategic stump

This suspicious thing was discovered in a suburb of Moscow in the 1970s: an artificial tree stump that intercepted signals from the Soviet missile system and then transmitted to an American spy satellite. As a result, the KGB officers found the radar, which, by the way, was powered by solar panels... A very expensive technology at the time.

Pen camera

In the 70s, even spy cameras had impressive dimensions, but this development of the CIA was a real revolution. The traitorous Soviet diplomat Alexander Ogorodnik, with her help, handed over hundreds of secret documents to the Americans before it was revealed. In the same pen there was a capsule with poison, which sent Ogorodnik to the next world at the time of his arrest.

Stash coin

And here is a useful coin in which you could store microfilms. Who would have thought that this is a miniature container that could be opened with a needle? The idea belongs to the KGB.

Coal bomb

It may seem like a lump of coal, but in reality it is explosive in disguise. It was enough to throw such coal into the furnace of, say, a steam locomotive or a steamer. In the 1940s, a special kit was even developed with which it was possible to repaint explosives.

Gloved pistol

It was developed at the Pentagon during World War II: an operative only had to "slap" the victim on the back to trigger a shot. This is how the enemies were eliminated without taking off their gloves.

Bomb flask

This flask was filled with explosives instead of brandy or water and was used for sabotage behind enemy lines. A gulp from this container was fatal not only for the one who was tormented by thirst, but also for everyone around him.

Spy camera for pigeons

The first drones were literally alive. In order to determine the enemy's disposition, the scouts sent on a mission ... pigeons, to which a miniature camera was attached. Really simple idea and efficient implementation.

Secret cufflinks

Cufflinks were made like a coin, which we already wrote about above. Hollow inside, they made it possible to smuggle strategic intelligence microfilms across the border.

Compass button

Who would have thought that ordinary buttons on trousers could become a compass at the right time? It was enough to connect them together to determine the desired direction: two points pointed to the north, and one to the south.

Do you think any of this arsenal is used today? As we think, it is unlikely, because now the technique has become much smaller. Perhaps these are some kind of electronic chips ... We can only guess! In the meantime, share this article with others, let them take a look at spy gadgets from the past.
