U.S. Plans Cannon Planes to Fight Bombers

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (U, P.).— American. aeronautical engineers,

seeking an effective defense against mass bombing attacks, are working today on.designs for a new pursuitinterceptor airplane equipped with three fast-firing cannon. Army Air Corps officers are convinced that anti-aircraft fire from the ground must be supplemented with fire of’ comparable caliber from the air. Anti-aircraft guns and fighting planes equipped only with machine

guns are no match for modern,}|

well-protected bombers, the experts contend,

Supplementing’ the cannon would be two to four .50 caliber machine guns. Experts contend that a shot from a cannon would demolish a plane. Chief difficulty in design of multicannon carrying planes is increased wind resistance resulting from wing changes ‘required for housing the cannon.
