Navy Has "Buck
Rp9er" Type Ship
The Navy’s first “Buck Roger”
ship—a large seaplane tender
modified to permit experiment
al firing of 14-ton rockets from her
broad after deck—is at sea on her
initial voyage as a seagoing plat
form for upper atmosphere re
search.
The vessel, the USS NORTON
SOUND 540-foot 9100-ton mother
ship for seaplanes, departed yes
terday from the Naval Base, Nor
folk, Virginia. She was recently
modified at the Naval Shipyard,
Philadelphia into a floating labor
atory for the test firing of various
types of rockets including the Aer
obee and the 28000-pound V-2 and
for launching high altitude bal
loons.
Her basic mission will be to wid
en the horizon of upper atmos
phere research through rocket fir
ing experiments far out at sea in
safe isolated areas at various lati
tudes extending from the Equator
to the Polar regions that are not
feasible for land tests. >
Although a captured German
V-2 rocket was successfully fired
from the flight deck of the USS
MIDWAY, large aircraft carrier,
as an experiment on September
«, 1947, the "NORTON SOUND"
is the first Navy ship* to be specifi
cally equipped for the [trimary
function of firing large rockets.
The modification of the seaplane
tender for use as an experimental
rocket ship has primarily involved
covering the broad seaplane deck
with metal sheathing to withstand !
tiie heat created in firing the rock
ets from their'vertical cradle, re- I
moving the two forward five-inch |
gun turrents to make room for ai
helicopter, landing platform and -a
platform for launching balloons,-1
the installation of tanks for the I
storage of special fuels used in '
rockets, and the installation of
spepial and extensive firefighting
and damage control equipment.
