  6. 03/23/99 Schowengerdt/Berger APS Centennial 1999 Project Chameleo PROJECT YEHUDI REVISITED During WWII the visual concealment of a dive bomber by using a series of lights along its leading edges was conceived. A few seconds deception would be enough to enable the bomber to release its depth charges and destroy a surfaced submarine before visual detection.
