Looks like something outdated by airplanes before it was even built. Cool nonetheless.

Looks like 8 x 10 inches.

Intresting, but what would be the purpose? To get a image clear of atmospheric haze?

It probably had a filter to let IR light go trough and stop other spectum. Like a filter if you will…

Awesome. I love the style of the old documentary newsreel commentary.

What is an “Infrared lens”. Do you mean that it uses infraredFILM or is a special kind of lens?
