Hi,
a friend and I are unable to identify the WW2-era aircraft on this photo (no caption or context available): http://www.designation-systems.net/mystery.jpg We think that the aircraft (obviously a glider) is connected to the U.S. Navy's GLOMB ("Glider Bomb") program for remotely controlled gliders used as surface-attack missiles. Several types of gliders were used in this program, some (heavily??) modified from existing types, others newly-designed. Unfortunately, the information on GLOMB in out sources is incomplete and partially inconsistent, and we couldn't come up with a really plausible ID for the aircraft. So, any input would be much appreciated. Perhaps someone has that same photo _with_ a caption ;-). Thanks in advance! Andreas |
