Giant Space Beetles were the product of Soviet experiments during the Cold War involving Human Growth Hormones. During these experiments interns in the Soviet Medical Labrortories spilled HGHs on the floor, at which roaches would approach, and drink the hormones. These hormones caused the roaches to grow to immense proportions. These roaches were than shown to Soviet Red Army commanders, who then put them to work in the Afghan War as transports. Resourceful Soviet infantry rigged the creatures, now known as Giant Space Beetles, with crew served weaponry, and used them to provide cover against RPG-7 attacks by Afghan Rebels. During the last days of the war, as Soviet troops began pulling out of Afghanistan, Rebels attacked the base at which the Giant Space Beetles were being held. The Rebel

During the last days of the war, as Soviet troops began pulling out of Afghanistan, Rebels attacked the base at which the Giant Space Beetles were being held. The Rebels, having no use for them, gave them to their friends at CIA. The beetles were then put into cold storage at Wright-Patterson AFB after being brought to the US.
