If I recall correctly, it was you who posted several alternate history weapons in the thread this one sprung out of.
So if there was anyone who gave the idea of secret weapons (or alternate weapons), it was you.
Perhaps, but those weapons were mostly of a realism based brand of alternate history where WW2 lasted longer or was slightly different, and some of those could have come about at Downfall or were at least meant as food for thought on possible latter day weapons in feasible design development by the time the US got to invading Japan in 1945 and 1946. Not a total wacky Secret Weapons slew. Likewise, I didn't post them as in "Put these in! put these in!" but as in "Here's some things which possibly could have come into existence so you might want to look. I'll just post all of them, Downfall and not and out there and not (though I prefer the not in that part), so you guys can take a look." So they weren't integral parts but simply possible things that could see some form of inclusion. And I didn't post the more out there stuff because I wanted it in Downfall scenarios (and there was relatively few things that were "out there"; most were conventional instruments). I posted them because I was just listing off all the stuff I could find there.
And all those -at least the Downfall geared- dealt with a scenario at the end of the war, in an alternate end to it and were conventional. That's far different from giving the Russians electrotanks smack dab in the middle of a Moscow invasion in 1943.
And likewise, most of them being conventional and just more developed versions of already existing weapons that could have come about, I wouldn't call them "Secret Weapons". A few of them were Secret weapons type things, those were mostly posted simply because they met the qualifier of WW2 and I was presenting simply all the stuff I could find in that thread.
As I said, Alternate history is not Secret Weapons nor vice-versa. And there is a difference between the whacked out or unrealistic, and the realistic and plausible developments. The latter is good and that is what the weapons and devices out of that list I intended to deal with the Downfall scenario were meant for. The former is bad in this case at least.
