The other military experiment this reminds me of is the one where they tried to see if soldiers would keep fighting well after being exposed to LSD. It turns out that if you made an LSD weapon, the enemy would probably not be able to fight well.

The military’s research on LSD ended in 1963, not because of the unethical aspects of the research, but because the effects of LSD were so unpredictable that the drug could not be effectively weaponized.

Getting armed troops high on psychedelics sounds like the worst possible plan.
