flight and cannot be changed during flight. Target-seeking missles are provided with a means, within themselves, for detecting a target and steering to hit it. Remotely Controlled The command-system missile is controlled in flight by orders transmitted by radio or other means. The target pilotless aircraft and the remote-controlled Navy Hellcats, which flew through the Bikini atom-bomb cloud, are samples of this type. In course-seeking missiles, a beam of radio energy is directed on a target and the missile flies within the beam until it collides with the target. 2 Four basic types are: A missile fired from an aircraft; against another aircraft or surface or ground target; ‘from a surface unit against an aircraft; or against another surface or ground target. They are described as air-to-air; air-to-surface; surface-to-air, and surface-to-surface. Missiles are gravity powered (gliding to target), rocket-pow-ered, jet-powered or reciprocat-ing-engine-powered (in -the case of drone aircraft). One guided missile is actually in use by the Navy and additional tests are rapidly improving it. This is the Bat, a glide-bomb type of pilotless aircraft. “Its mission is to attack and destroy waterborne or non-land-locked shore targets. It was used successfully late in the war and sank or damaged several Jap ships. 4 : : The Bat has a self-controlled radar homing device which permits it to seek its targeets and destroy them with no further outside control.

TWO: The Russians gave further indication that they may attempt to close the international air corridor over the Soviet zone of Germany to Berlin. . THREE: In Korea, another potential danger spot where the United States stands face-to-face with Russia, the U. 8. challenged the Soviet Union to permit economic unification. of Korea and allow Koreahs inh “the Soviet-tc cupied northern portion of the country to vote in elections supervised by the United Nations.
