Fun #16 - 1960 Bristol Siddeley Ground-effect Experimental Model

An odd-looking device, for sure. But it served a purpose.  

Know the story? For 1 point, identify this vehicle, the reason behind its odd configuration, and the company that built it.    

Partial answers will be answered with 'incomplete', so be sure to answer all parts of the question, if you'd like the point.

Only complete answers will earn a point

I think there were more than a vehicle for this investigation and was not sure that the photo was one of them.
