Target aircraft


Hot Springs, Idaho (ID), US
The targets include a conventional target circle, a small cluster of armored personnel vehicles, an airfield complex, a command post, and small air defense sites with a SAM and AAA battery. These highly visible targets, which offer obvious visual clues such as devegetated run-in lines to guide aircraft approaches, provide none of the concealment expected under actual combat conditions. Furthermore, the targets lack realism in terms of the configuration, spacing, and separation required for tactical ordnance delivery training.
