Churchill described the bomb as
a glider-borne explosive which is
shot from the plane by a rocket
charge and guided, presumably
by radio, to its target. Some ex-
perts doubted that it is radio-con-
trolled.
It was understood that the bomb
has the appearance of a duck in
flight. Measuring only about a
yard in length and bearing gul!
iike wings, the bomb is launched
from a plane by a rocket eharae.
Observers have icpe.rteri the gli-
der bomb has a speed in excess of
500 miles an hour. Usually, it is
launched when the attacking plane
is about a mile from the target.
