AKA: BQ-1;BQ-1/BQ-2. Status: Cancelled 1944.

These aerial torpedoes were to be unmanned expendable aircraft (either purpose-built or converted from existing types), fitted with a large payload of high-explosive, remote-control equipment and a forward-looking TV camera. The drones were to be directed to the target by radio commands from a control aircraft, where the operator would "fly" the drone watching the video transmitted by the camera.

Maximum range: 2,740 km (1,700 mi).
