The German proximity fuse.


Not exactly an article for this newsgroup. We strive to remain on topic
and would appreciate if posters would keep this in mind.


Incorrect, this is one of the rew recent threads that IS on topic.
As an example the use of proximity fuses was critical to defending
the USN against kamikaze attack in WW2

Our group is NAVAL AVIATION.


And the US NAVY used proximity fuses

CHARTER: rec.aviation.military.naval

The purpose of this newsgroup is to facilitate open discussion about all
issues relating to Naval Aviation. It will provide a global forum for:
- pilots
- naval flight officers
- flight crew members
- aircraft maintenance personnel
- air traffic controllers
- flight deck personnel
- other support personnel
- others interested in Naval Aviation

The discussions will be based upon:
- flight training
- squadron history
- aircraft carrier operations
- patrol missions
- lighter-than-air operations
- combat experiences


It seems to me that discussion of technology used
for shooting down enemy naval aircraft in combat is
entirely on topic.
