The Fleetwings Model 37 was an Assault Drone with military designation BQ-1. It was plywood skinned and was powered by 2 x Franklin O-405-7 engines of 250 hp each. A 2000 lb bomb could be carried in a compartment just aft of the wing. In this photo, the 48 ft span wings with leading edge slots are well illustrated. A TV camera mounted in the aircraft allowed its guidance onto target from a mother-ship. On 17 July 1944 the aircraft was wrecked in an engine failure induced forced landing near Wright Field/OH, resulting in cancellation of the program. Photo from: William Engle via Tim Martin

Designated as an Assault Drone, the plywood skinned BQ-1 was powered by 2 x Franklin O-405-7 engines of 250 hp each. A 2000 lb bomb could be carried in the compartment seen here just aft of the wing. A TV camera mounted in the aircraft allowed its guidance onto target from a mother-ship. In this photo, test pilot William H. Engle is attempting to ferry the aircraft to Wright Field, Dayton/OH, but an oil leak from the LH engine forced a return to Lancaster/PA. The leaking oil can be seen on the landing gear and wheel fairings. On 17 July 1944 the aircraft was wrecked in an engine failure induced forced landing near Wright Field, resulting in cancellation of the program.
