"Assault Chariot with Scythes," also known as the "Scythed Chariot," is a conceptual design attributed to the Italian polymath Leonardo da Vinci. This military invention is one of the many innovative war machines that Leonardo sketched in his notebooks, reflecting his interest in engineering and his engagement with the technological challenges of his time. The design is found in the Codex Atlanticus, a twelve-volume set of drawings and writings by Leonardo, which is the largest collection of his work.

The Assault Chariot with Scythes is a horse-drawn vehicle equipped with large, rotating scythes on either side, intended to cut down infantry in battle. Leonardo's design showcases his understanding of mechanics and his ability to combine this with a strategic approach to warfare. The chariot is designed to be lightweight and fast, maximizing its destructive potential while minimizing the risk to the operators.

Leonardo's chariot was never built during his lifetime, and there is some debate among historians and engineers about its practicality and effectiveness. The design reflects the broader Renaissance trend of revisiting and innovating upon ancient military technologies; scythed chariots had been used in ancient warfare, notably by the Persians, Greeks, and Romans.

The sketch and accompanying notes by Leonardo demonstrate his characteristic mirror writing and his meticulous attention to detail. While the Assault Chariot with Scythes is an example of Leonardo's genius and imagination, it also serves as a reminder of the era's fascination with the art of war and the intersection of science, technology, and military strategy. Today, the design is studied not only for its historical significance but also for its place within the broader context of Leonardo's contributions to engineering and invention.
