TYPE TEST OF AN/ASG-10

Abstract

The AN/ASG-10 is a 'Toss-Bombing' director. Its purpose is to enable aircraft to execute glide bombing attacks from increased altitudes (approximately 1700 to 11,000 feet) with a high degree of accuracy. The results of the type tests show that the equipment will work satisfactorily over a temperature range of minus 30 C to plus 50 C at low humidities. If the equipment is to be operated under humid conditions, the wire used in all the units and all cables should be vinylite covered wire. It is also desirable to treat the MPI potentiometer and the test switch so that humidity will not give low leakage resistance.
