This survey was performed to accurately establish the locations of the four Air Combat Maneuvering Range (ACMR) platforms constructed by Brown & Root, Inc. in the Atlantic Ocean offshore of Kitty Hawk, N.C. during the summer of 1977. Prior to performing the ACMR tower location survey onshore control points with sufficient elevation for the long shots to the offshore sites had to be located. It was found that the U.S.C. and G monuments Wright located atop the Wright Memorial Monument at elevation 144 ft. and Bodie Island Lighthouse at elevation 156 ft. met the criteria for elevation.

The Praetorian STARShip : the untold story of the Combat Talon

ISBN: 1428990437
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 507
Book Description
Jerry Thigpen's study on the history of the Combat Talon is the first effort to tell the story of this wonderfully capable machine. This weapons system has performed virtually every imaginable tactical event in the spectrum of conflict and by any measure is the most versatile C-130 derivative ever produced. First modified and sent to Southeast Asia (SEA) in 1966 to replace theater unconventional warfare (UW) assets that were limited in both lift capability and speed the Talon I quickly adapted to theater UW tasking including infiltration and resupply and psychological warfare operations into North Vietnam. After spending four years in SEA and maturing into a highly respected UW weapons system the Joint Chief of Staff (JCS) chose the Combat Talon to lead the night low-level raid on the North Vietnamese prison camp at Son Tay. Despite the outcome of the operation the Talon I cemented its reputation as the weapons system of choice for long-range clandestine operations. In the period following the Vietnam War United States Air Force (USAF) special operations gradually lost its political and financial support which was graphically demonstrated in the failed Desert One mission into Iran. Thanks to congressional supporters like Earl Hutto of Florida and Dan Daniel of Virginia funds for aircraft upgrades and military construction projects materialized to meet the ever-increasing threat to our nation. Under the leadership of such committed hard-driven officers as Brenci Uttaro Ferkes Meller and Thigpen the crew force became the most disciplined in our Air Force. It was capable of penetrating hostile airspace at night in a low-level mountainous environment covertly to execute any number of unconventional warfare missions.
