This, as with a few other of Steinmetz's patents, has to do with an explosive, or bomb, being connected by way of a reeled cable to an aircraft, generally an airplane. The explosive is suspended, and drawn over another aircraft, generally a longer airship. The flight of the attacking craft is generally transverse to that of the craft being attacked. The explosive is drawn close to the craft being attacked by way of the cable's reeling mechanism, and presumably by the flight of the attacking craft itself.
