Nope. This is the 1952-vintage BoMi proposal. There'll be buckets about it in APR V2N3...

supposedly there is something (model or mockup) related to this in one of the Smithsonian's storage buildings. All hearsay, but from a first-person source who works at Bell now and toured the facilities there including the stuff off-limits to normal visitors.
