the comparative ineffectiyeness OF
the Zeppelins seemed demonstrated,
is likely 10 be revived and the ter
rifying power OF these monster air
ships fully realized il the reports
relating 10 the new aerial torpedo
perfected by the Germans prove to
be true. The September Popular
Mechanics Magazine, in an illustrate
ed article, says:
The accounts Of the operation Of
these torpedoes read like the fan
tastic tales with which readers were
RECALLED before the great war be-
came a reality. In many respects
the torpedo resembles a submarine
torpedo and is said TO possess all
its destructive power. II is equip
ped with delicate wireless ap-
paratus that controls its propelling
and steering mechanism. and
through this every movement OF
the torpedo is controlled by the
powerful wireless waves sent out
from the Zeppelin. As il speeds
toward the target the torpedo can
be steered up or down or horizontal
/ ly at the will OF the operator. In
practice il l. simply propelled TO a
point directly above the object TO
be destroyed and is then turned
vertically downward and dropped
like an ordinary bomb.
The new torpedo is said TO be
about seven feet in length and to
have a war head like that Of a sub
marine torpedo. In order 10 allow
/ il 10 penetrate a roof or other OBJ
struction before exploding. the war
head is equipped with time fuse
that delays the explosion for a few
seconds after the impact. Carried
in the body Of the torpedo is from
100 to $50 pounds OF high explo-
sive, enough 10 cause great havoc,
especially when exploded within an
3 inclosure such as q building. The
= torpedo is driven by two propellers
! at the stern and is sustained In the
air by the two propellors working
on vertical axes and placed fore
and aft under the body. By means
OF an arrangement OF fins and rud-
ders il is kept from capsizing in
the heaviest winds. II is believed
that the propellods and other mech
anism are operated by compressed
air.
while this torpedo can doubtless
be made enormously more effective
than a bomb that is simply drop
ped, il has one serious Limitation
when launched from an airship
against Notifications or warships.
To be safe from the fire OF anti
aircraft guns the airship must
either be at a considerable distance
from the target or at a great height
above the ground. In either case
IL would be extremely difficult to
determine when the torpedo was
anywhere near point directly
above the target. In spite OF this,
however, the Germans have appar-
emily provided themselves with an
exceedingly effective weapon OF Of
Tense in this torpedo"
