Kettering Aerial Torpedo / Kettering Bug
Aero Telemetry really enjoyed having our Kettering Bug Project showcased at the 2015 AMA Expo. The flyable airplane was initially commissioned for a History Channel television show commemorating the 100 year anniversary of World War I.
The background and technical details of the plane were meticulously researched by the team for historical accuracy and re-designed with many of the same materials and techniques that were used to build the original.The Kettering Aerial Torpedo was far ahead of its time when it originally flew in 1918.
We are looking forward to the first flight test later this year. Here are a few pictures from the show.
