EVALUATION OF THE 30-INCH GENERAL-PURPOSE SEARCHLIGHT EQUIPMENT.

Abstract

This report covers the development, testing, and evaluation of the 30-inch general-purpose searchlight equipment intended for use by U. S. Army Artillery and the Marine Corps to furnish direct or indirect illumination of wide sectors of a battlefield or other areas where surveillance is desired or work is to be accomplished during the hours of darkness. Two searchlights designed to meet the requirements of the military characteristics were developed and were subjected to concurrent engineering and service tests. (Author)
