Navies Need Not Fear The Aeroplane. By Rear Admiral WILLIAM T. SWINBURNE. U S. N.. Retired. CHE AEROPLANE IN ITS PRESENT STATE OF DEVELOP MENT IS NOT TO BE FEARED BY THE NAVIES OF THE WORLD. THE AEROPLANE MUST ATTAIN TO A STATE OF PROGRESS ABOUT FIVE THOUSAND TIMES WHAT IT HAS NOW BEFORE IT CAN FIGURE AGAINST THE NAVIES. j A navy is not to defend harbors. It is to destroy other navies or i proceed against harbor tortmcations, which latter it can do at a distance of twenty or thirty miles, which is TOO FAR OUT FOR THE AEROPLANE TO GO on an important mission. Again, the aeroplane, if it wants to drop bombs on a war-ship, must go to TOO GREAT A HEIGHT to try the feat, for otherwise it can easily be reached by the marksmen of the warship, .Getting to. .ft height great enough to-try business, she will find her bombs deflected by air currents. When I was on the Texas we had a number of gunners who could easily pick out any aeroplane at the height at which the aeroplanes can do mischief.
