AIRCRAFT TORPEDO DEVELOPMENT UNIT

Abstract

The number of trials completed increased over comparable periods in recent years; Wessex clearance trials in respect of DME buoys and Depth Charges have been made on behalf of A. + A.E.E. This Unit participated in the Wessex HAS Mk 5 Winterisation trials in Canada and recommendations have been made in respect of Mk 44 torpedo and fuze design, and minor modifications to flight-in- air material have been initiated. Arrangements have been provisionally made with R.A.E. permitting the use of a Canberra BI.6 aircraft as the test vehicle for high speed release trials of Mk 44 torpedoes.
