	Howeth: Chapter XXXVI (1963)
		The new Bureau had no personnel sufficiently familiar with radio to assume these functions, and they were continued in the Bureau of Engineering with the Bureau of Aeronautics providing them with one naval aviator, responsible to the Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics.
		He maintained that the Bureau of Aeronautics should have complete control of aircraft radio, since it had become a specialized area--an integral part of the airplane, and thus limited in size and weight, requiring special design considerations and involving peculiar problems of installation, maintenance, and operation.
		A Bureau of Aeronautics and a Bureau of Ordnance letter was not prepared because the Chief of the Bureau of Ordnance failed to approve the recommendations.

		The Bureau is particularly desirous that the technique of operating offensive torpedo carrying radio controlled aircraft be pushed to a conclusion and that sufficient flight tests of aircraft television be carried out to permit recommendations for useful application for naval work.
		It was requested that the Chiefs of the three concerned bureaus appoint representatives to witness and report on tests to be conducted to determine the necessary characteristics for assault drones and control planes and to consider the tactical employment of the new weapon.
		After insuring that this was agreeable to the Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics, King, on 23 March, approved it with the admonishment that the secrecy of the weapon would be maintained and information concerning it limited to those who must know.

		Conceived in 1945, the D-558-1 Skystreak was designed by the Douglas Aircraft Company for the U.S. Navy Bureau of Aeronautics, in conjunction with the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA).
		The Skystreaks were turojet powered aircraft that took off from the ground under their own power and had straight wings and tails.
		However, the Skystreak performed an important role in aeronautical research by flying for extended periods of time at transonic speeds, which freed the X-1 to fly for limited periods at supersonic speeds.
