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
