“...as set on fire on May 15, 1943, when armed bats were accidentally released.[5] The bats incinerated the test range and roosted under a fuel tank.”

It was canceled ‘cuz it wasn't going to be ready until 1945. Seems to me all the testing that was needed was done on May 15, 1943. Stupid bureaucrats.
