You think we’ll get a cable that we can unreel that has an anchor at the end?
I think I read somewhere that (if memory serves me right) Robert S. Johnson wanted to be able to inflict more damage to the enemy on his way home.
He invented a spool of cable that he could release. On the end of it was a type of hook/anchor. His idea was he could drag the hook a few feet above the ground and it would snag and rip power lines and possibly communication lines out along the way.
He told his mechanic about his idea, and together they built the contraption.
When it came time to field test the thing, the hook snagged hard and apparently almost pulled him out of the air until it finally ripped loose from beneath the airplane.
I guess it just wasn’t very effective! Lol!
