Title: Torpedoing a submarine from an aeroplane
-
Title: The airman is monarch of all he surveys including the enemy submarine submerged thirty to forty feet under the water which is perfectly visible to him. He releases a bomb which is guided in its descent to the water and its speed under the water by the parachute, which is a dished circular plate. Two means are used to explode the bomb. Water flowing in through perforations either fires a quantity of sodium which in turn discharges the fulminate, or it completes the circuit of an electrical igniting apparatus setting off the bomb
