PERFECT FLASHLESS POWDER
United States Army Invention Will
Permit of Night Firing Without
illumination

Flashless gunpowder, making pos
sible night firing without illumination,
will he demonstrated shortly at the an
nuai meeting OF the Army Ordnance
association at the Aberdeen proving
grounds.
Night firing with guns as large as
five inches, In which the muzZle was
barely visible to observers so feet
away, have been conducted with no
more than momentary dull red glow,
and no Illumination whatever.
Other features Of the program
include the firing Of the "heaviest
single unit of ordnance In the world"
the recently perfected 15-inch 5O-cali-
ber gun mounted on disappearing
carriage. The gun measures 80 feet,
in length weighs 100000 pounds, and
requires $50 pounds of smokeless pow
der to propel it's 2,4OO-pound projec-
tile approximately % miles.
Although the gun weighs nearly
500 tons, 1t can be rotated $50 de-
grees and elevated or depressed 80
degrees by another. 1t Is operative
at the rate OF one shot per minute.
A new and enlarged Browning
rapid-fire gun of .50-caliber intended
for use against aircraft and tanks
will be demonstrated. The ammu-
milton used Is twice as large as that
used in the World war and the rate
Of firing has been greatly increased.
