Attached is a picture of a "DASH" remote controlled anti-submarine helo that carried 2 war shot torpedos. As the most junior engineer, my first job in the Navy in 1965 during flight ops was to sit around in an aluminum fire suit in case the one we carried crashed. My job was to pull quick release pins so the war shots would drop free then kick them over the side!

Never had to worry though as once the helo got a mile or so away radio control would be lost and it would disappear! After loosing 3 of them we quit carrying them and we also got some new junior men.
