Summary

Description

The "Pelican" was developed concurrently with the "Bat" by NBS, the Navy Bureau of Ordnance, and the MIT Radiation Laboratory. The "Pelican" is shown with instrumentation for field testing. Directly beneath the wing, shown in the photo, was mounted a 16mm Bell and Howell Type M-4A gun sight aiming point camera. Slightly forward and lower was mounted a 16mm Cine Kodak Model E camera. The housing on the nose covered a panel of signal lamps indicating the application of radar controls. The cameras simultaneously photographed the panel and the ground ahead of the glider.
