-13- receive the fire signal from the unit. Both C-130's have a DME system, and one has an EM/EM receiving and recording station. In addition, considerable control and communications equipment was installed." Under the Fishbowl progress, the addition of boosters and pads to the program is described with a special notegiven to the Checkmate event. Under this, Sandia is developing the Strypi booster for use with the recruits and Mark 50 warhead. The system development was begun in mid-August, authorized by the AEC on 2h August, and completed in about six weeks. One ballistic round was fired on el September and an F and F unit was tested on 30 September, both successfully. As for the above-ground tests at the NTIS, Sandia's participation in making measurements both in the EM and Vulnerability areas on Smell Boy are noted; as well as Sandia's responsibility for overall coordination of all AEC-sponsored ' projects onthe Little Fellers and Johnny Boy. Sandia was responsible on these last three shots for procuring, modifying, and placing, arming, and firing all three of them. As a result of problems encountered in Dominic, a number of projects are under way to improve the performance of the HRT for weapons diagnostics. | The appendices contain some brief summaries of Sandia's overall participation in Dominic and Nougat, and a report on the Dominic test vehicles. Note that now, as has been going on for some time, the progress reports, at least have been devoted in ever increasing measure to Sandia's research activities and other technical areas such as materials.and processes. The trend seems to beaway from the reporting on the routine production, component testing, training, etc. activities toward the more technical work. This is not to say that there is a clear indication that the scope of effort by Sandia has moved from one type of activity into another.
