Lex Anteinternet: Friday, July 27, 1923. Martin MS-1s.

Lex Anteinternet: Friday, July 27, 1923. Casper living on Tulsa Time?

The Federal Archives list these photos of a Martin MS-1 that the Navy was experimenting with.  The concept was to carry the biplane on a submarine, something that proved viable, and while the U.S. Navy gave up on it by World War Two the Japanese did not.


The Imperial Japanese Navy would, in turn, use submarine born monoplanes to attack the U.S. West Coast, albeit with no success.
