Scope and content

Payman mentions that the 3 in. bursting diaphragm apparatus requires very little done to it to enable it to be used.

Perspex sheets would be used in trial tests to determine how they are affected by bomb fragments.

A steel plate had still not been received by Payman for the development of an explosive device.

Payman hopes to show SZ a model anti-tank mine.
