DELETED (DakorA) Project 5.3 ~ In-Flight Participation of a B66B - Richard W, Bachman Objective: The primary objective of this test was to measure the gust and ther- mal effects of a ELETED ‘nuclear device on a B-66B Aircraft. Instrumentation: Instrumentation on the B-66B for the,pgsDiora) shot consisted of the following: 67 strain gages at 5 stations and 26 T.C. at 7 stations on the L.H. Wing, 16 strain gages at 1 station and 6 T.C, at 2 stations on the R.H. Wing, 25 strain gages at 4 stations and 12 T.C,. at 2 stations on the L.H. horizontal stabilizer, 9 strain gages at 1 station and 2 Tec. at 1 station on the R.H. horizontal stabilizer, 3 strain gages at 1 station and 9 T.C, at 3 stations on the L.H. elevator, 2 strain gages at 1 station and 6 T.C, at 1 station on the R.H. elevator, 32 T.C. at 10 stations on the fuselage, 17 accelerometers on the fuselage, empenage and nacelle, 13 calorimeters and 2 radiometers in the tail, together with 6 cameras, 5 calor= imeters and 1 radiometer together with 6 cameras in the fuselage belly, wing and tail deflection cameras, 32 basic flight instruments on a photo recorder panel, and 8 channels of correlation. Aircraft Position in Space: Using a combination of the K-5 Radar System and the Raydist System, the B~66 was positioned at an altitude of 16,000 feet, on a true heading of 127° and a horizontal range of 13,100 feet at time zero, At time of shock arrival, the horizontal range was 35,050 feet, with the A/C on the same heading and at the same altitude as before. The ground speed between COPIED/DOE LANL RC - 23 = Yo time zero and shock arrival position was 772 ft./sec.
