I’ mean airships—blimps, the_ comparatively small non-rigid ships that are fabric and rubber envelopes around a lot of cubic feet of heltum and have armored cabins hanging from their mid- dies. For a good many years now, lighter-than-air craft have been a bone of contention wherever mili- tary or naval experts assemble. Most of the controversy has cen- tered around the big, rigid dirigi- bles or zeppelins. For the present you can forget about these. There isn’t an active one in the defense set-up and at the moment there's none on order or even planned. But the Navy does have a program for construction of 48 blimps.
