In the dozen or so articles I've read about HAARP, only one
mentioned a possible weapons application. It is hoped the system
will allow operators to alter local weather patterns. They
could muddy (create storms) the approach of an advancing enemy army,
slowing their progress.
By coincidence, I had been just reading Searching for Certainty by
the ex-RAND and well respected mathametician John L. Casti in which
he devotes a full chapter to weather. He referenced a declassified
CIA (through FOIA) report titled, "Study of Climatological
Research as It Pertains to Intelligence Problems," CIA Office of
Research and Development, August 1974 which can be found in the
appendix of The Weather Conspiracy: The Coming of the New Ice Age
A Report of the Impact Team. New York: Ballantine, 1977. I found
a copy in my local used bookstore.
The short summary: weather is a serious defense issue since the
great weather we have had for the past 100 years may give way to a
"little ice age" resulting in significant loss of agricultural
lands, particularly in the northern hemisphere. Worse, the
Wheeler/Maxwell Drought Clock indicates we are at the end of 510
year/170 year/100 year (three) weather cycle pattern which may have
catastropic effects on our ability to produce food. Needless to
say, if these predictions are accurate, we may be looking at world
anarchy in the very near future.
Might HAARP be addressing this issue? If the predictions are
accurate, I hope so.

Subject: Misc Ramblings
A few miscellaneous comments...
I met Richard Graham last Thursday night at the Aero Club of Texas'
monthly meeting. He kindly autographed a copy of his book "SR-71
Revealed - The Inside Story". I'm already halfway through it, and
I highly recommend it. It's not a picture book (plenty of those have
already been done), and it's not necessarily a history of the aircraft,
but more of a description of the plane, it's subsystems, and how the
crews remembered different aspects of the airplane. Definitely told
from the viewpoint of an SR-71 pilot (and squadron commander), I find
it a refreshing change from other books on the subject.
The next two meetings of the aforementioned Texas Aero Club will be:
1) a tour of the B-36 restoration project and the A-12 (Avenger II)
mockup at the Lockheed Martin facility in Ft. Worth (ex-GD plant, aka
Air Force Plant #4). Access to the A-12's restored cockpit is promised,
but since this is an active facility, no cameras will be allowed; and
2) a tour of Herb Tischler's Texas Airplane Factory at Meacham Field,
also in Ft. Worth. Mr. Tischler is currently building *from scratch*
flying replicas of Me-262s. He has obtained an actual aircraft from
the Paul Garber facility to use as a template (promising to return it
in better shape than he received it!), and I believe a total of five
aircraft are being built. The Me-262s will be powered by GE J-85s,
which will be inside replica shells of the original Jumo engines.
His last project was a 'fleet' of Grumman F3F-2 biplanes (three F3F-2s
and one G-32). That project took almost five years, and he has been
working on the Me-262s for at least two years now.
Anyone wanting more info on these tours can contact me directly.
Finally, I remember a posting some time ago that mentioned the A-12
(the original one) was originally powered by an engine from a failed
Navy program - was this a reference to the J75 used in Chance Vought's
F8U-3 Crusader III? I wouldn't call the F8U-3 a failure, though it did
lose out to the F4H-1 (Phantom II) as the Navy's new interceptor...
Enough rambling - lurk mode ON...

No.
They weren't talking about the J-75 but what became the J-58.
As to what Navy airplane they were talking about, factual information
is sketchy. Some talk about an unnamed Mach 3 aircraft, others mention
that it was intended for the A3J Vigilante (renamed A-5 in 1962, eventually
RA-5). I've never been convinced that we know the exact answer.
>I wouldn't call the F8U-3 a failure, though it did
>lose out to the F4H-1 (Phantom II) as the Navy's new interceptor...
I agree. The F8U-3 was a VERY COOL aircraft. It's sad that they were
all scrapped. At least they completed a few Crusader 3's, unlike
others which were in the prototype phase but got cancelled (like the
XF-103 (another favorite)).

Subject: Re: TLAM
Even though 8 F-117As were deployed to Kuwait, lately, the Skunk Works List
is somewhat dead. Here is a (not too skunky) post:
Tony Dinkel asked about the "Tomahawk":
>What authority does the GPS have over the overall flight path?
The GPS is used to update the INS during the flight, and for easier mission
planning/programming, especially for missions, requiring precisely timed
arrival over the target(s). GPS, TERCOM, and INS should be well integrated,
but apparently the complex and protracted programming of the INS, TERCOM,
DSMAC and GPS guidance system resulted in several missiles not being ready
for launch in time for the second attack. All the remaining TLAM-C/TLAM-D
Block 2 and Block 2A missiles were supposed to be updated to Block 3
standard, when going through periodical maintenance, but funding is as usual
in question. All Desert Storm TLAMs were Block 2 versions, while all Desert
Strike missiles where apparently Block 3 versions.
>At what point does the TLAM become supersonic, if at all? The video we
>recently got from the Gulf showed a rather slow departure.
None of the versions of the M-109 are supersonic. Most older BGM-109s
(models A through G) are equipped with Williams International (Rolls-Royce)
F107-WR-400 (Block 3 have F107-WR-402) turbofans, while most of the later
AGM-109 versions (H through L) have Teledyne (CAE/Continental) J402-CA-401
turbojets. The Land-, Ship- and Submarine-launched versions also have a
rocket booster (USN Type 106, or newer (Block 3) Type 111) for the launch
phase. Cruise speed (in either high-altitude or terrain-following mode) is
probably well below the maximum speed of Mach 0.7 (550 mph).
>Is the INS turned on and calibrated prior to launch or does it use the GPS?
I guess the INS needs to be calibrated (maybe directly from the submarine,
surface vessel or launch aircraft), before the flight. The old Tomahawks
use only TERCOM to update their INS periodically, while the newer ones also
use GPS, maybe even for calibration.
>Can the TLAM tell if it is being tracked by an unfriendly radar? Can it
>take evasive action?
No. The BGM-109 relies 100% on terrain following, low level flight and the
evasion of known AAA/SAM sites in the flight planning phase.
>Is there a guidance protocol for reacquiring the terrain profile if it is
>lost during an evasive maneuver?
Because they are not supposed to make 'evasive maneuvers', it's probably not
a problem. The most advanced versions have several programmable waypoints,
periodic terrain contour mapping for mid-course updates, and DSMAC and/or
IIR for terminal-phase guidance. The anti-ship version uses ARH to locate
its (possibly) moving target and flies a search pattern in the target area.
There are several different terminal attack maneuvers possible, depending on
the warhead, guidance options and, of course, the target.
I know of the following Tomahawk versions, several are actually not deployed
operationally, and there are also sub-versions (Block 1, Block 2, Block 2A,
Block 3, etc.) with different capabilities. All Tomahawks were originally
designated as BGM-109s (Multiple-launch environments, Ground-attack Missile),
but later the specialized sub-types were designated AGM, RGM, and UGM,
depicting their actual launch environment (Air-launched, Surface-Vessel/Ship-
launched, and Underwater/Submarine-launched):

700 lb WDU-36B warhead, and more fuel. IOC was in May 1993.
PST software update for USN, replacing Block 3 software, IOC was 1995 (?).
Block 4 standard (called T-BIP or TMMM) includes a passive IIR for terminal
guidance, improved INS and GPS, and may get rid of TERCOM, as well as a
two-way datalink for in-flight retasking. A 'Bunker-Buster' sub-version with
a different, new warhead is called the THTP. Block 4 is now in the EMD phase.
It is planned to modify up to 560 TSAMs to Block 4 TLAMs.
The current (Block 3) Hughes-built, ship-based TLAM costs about $600,000
each (originally built by General Dynamics and later McDonnel Douglas) and
cost $1,000,000 a shot during Desert Storm. The current Tomahawk inventory
of the US military comprises about 3,300 missiles, including several TLAM-N,
according to AW&ST.

Here's an interesting question:
Under the existing contract, by 1998 brand new Block III Tomahawks will have
dropped to a unit price of under $500K. That's under the price of JASSM and
Harpoon, both of which have much less range. They go way up after that. Why
aren't we buying evry Tomahawk we can lay our hands on, instead of only 100?

Sorry about the stupid mistake from my previou post. I only
wanted to post the new unofficial homepage of the F-22
(http://www.dragonfire.net/~ares/).
Recently, a friend of mine spoke with a retired pilot of the SR-71.
I don't think the following information is very reliable because it is hard
to believe. Or my friend was having fun with me or the SR-71 pilot was
having fun lying. But... who knows...
The SR-71 pilot told to my friend that the maximun ceiling of the
Blackbird is higher than 100,000 ft. The maximun speed of the SR-71 is
Mach 9 (since there is almost no density up there). I don't remember if
he told me that it was the first design or the first prototype of the
SR-71 was flown (or designed) as early as 1945.
Well... this will warm up the traffic of the list ;)

Well... clearly this guy was either never an SR-71 pilot,
or he was having a hell of a lot of "fun". The references
to Mach 9 and 1945 are obviously nothing but pure nonsense.
The design process for the Blackbird started around 1958,
and the first flight of the A-12 was in 1962. The usual
top speed for the SR-71 is Mach 3.2, but theoretically
that could probably be expanded to around Mach ~3.5 - 4.

Subject: Janes: Eurostealth
Janes Defence Weekly, week ended Sept 4, '96 has a briefing on the Future
Offensive Aircraft proposed for the RAF.
A good series of articles, it covers a number of related issues.
1. The RAF will need Tornado (and possibly Harrier) GR replacements about
2015. It would have bought the A-12 off the shelf, had it not been
cancelled. JSF Navy version is a possibility, tho' there are doubts about
it having only one seat, one engine. Unmanned vehicles possible, but
unlikely, except perhaps at the end of the purchased series. Thick-wing
version of EFA considered, but most likely decision is a multi-nation new
aircraft project.
2. Struggles in the fighter business. The EFA is an example how not to do
things. USA Department of Defense and UK Ministry of Defence have
maintained the "special relationship" that began with the Manhattan
project etc etc with stealth technology... however, while the MoD knows
everything, a lot of the tech is kept there- British Aerospace doesn't get
all of it and is forbidden to share it with foreign companies. BAe did
announce a joint stealth strike project with Dassault and ran smack up
against this wall. They are still working on other areas of
compatibility. BAe is working on the Macair-Northgrum JSF, but still
doesn't get to involve itself much in the stealth side of it. Britain
doesn't have a formal "Black programmes" or SAR system, but one does
appear to be evolving (BAe Warton has a sort of skunk works recently
completed). Near future stealth will be models and simulation,
manned demonstrator will probably fly around 2000. Co-operating with
German or French partners will be very troublesome because of security
restrictions, this has lead to frustration and my guess is that something
will give somewhere... probably there will be an independent and
commercial European black system... but this will depend on the evolutioon
of European defence R&D and procurement and whether the national
governments involve themselves less in the details.
Notes on German Lampyridae (Firefly) stealth fighter. Never left wind
tunnel. Not because of political pressure from America(& UK?), but money.
Would have been supersonic in level flight, unlike F-117 (tho' the
comparison is perhaps unfair, Firefly being an interceptor and F-117 a
strike aircraft).
3. Article on UK-USA Stealth relationship. UK informed from a VERY early
stage. RAF evaluated F-117 in a variety of versions, including tactical
recon, but eventually declined to buy (?). WWII German research was
largely collected by the British after the war and shipped to America,
thus explaining the closeness of the relationship... this is historically
quite important. Brief speculative mention of possibility of covert F-111
successor, the "A-17." BAe stealth project is named HALO "High Agility
Low Observability" and will be a more "balanced" design than a pure
stealth plane. This is a demonstrator, not a prototype, but will be
closely linked to production... how this gets done is tricky, BAe can't
afford to produce it on its own for just the RAF... may be RAF-USAF?
Britain-Europe collaboration... well, see above...
4. Industrial and business analysis of JSF, sorry, my fingers are sore....
