Fighter Guns Spray Fireworks in Night Attack

Item

Night gunnery tests for fighter planes conducted on the Curtiss-Wright firing range show how a Kittyhawk or one of the new Curtiss Warhawks might look to the enemy as it attacks head on with guns blazing. Tracer bullets stab the darkness with fingers of fire. Camera shots of an attacking plane give the impression that the bullets are diverging when they are actually converging in front of the fighter.
