The HMS Cambeltown was a floating bomb disguised as a ship.
Operation Chariot in WWII was a plan to attack the Normandie drydock by first ramming it with the Cambeltown. Commandos then leapt out and engaged in battle. However, what nobody noticed was that the ship was hiding 4 tons of explosives inside her hull, timed to go off many hours later.
The explosion killed 360 Nazis and destroyed the dry dock, leaving it unusable for the next six years.
