Helicopter As Anti-Sub Weapon
Washington, May 16. The hellcoptor is being per- fected
an anti-submarine weapon and may bring about major changes in the convoying of men and supplies in war- time. Naval sources said.
Apparently the first armed helicopters will be the anti- submarine warfare (ASW) type. wrum their peculiar ability to stand stilit in the air or fly more than 100 miles an hour, the copters, have mørked advantages as bearers of delce- tion equipment and, anti-sub
weapons.
After more than a year of experimentation at Key West, Fla, and elsewhere, the Navy WB.S convinced sufficiently to place an order with Bell Air- Corp... Niagara Falls,
., for a machine specificall signed for ASW work.
The
fist order, as is customary in aircraft procurement,
calls for three helicopters, which may be delivered fairly soon.
