(c) Insure that interceptors do not carry any armament and the mode of attack will be as specified in Frag Orders issued by Headquarters USAF. (d) Limit UHF transmissions to target pilots to the absolute minimum. Transmissions regarding inter- ceptor relative position are not required, unless requested prior to the mission. (e) Break the interceptor off the target if the aircrew has not established visual contact by three nautical miles. (f) Forward required position reports for target aircraft to the appropriate ARTCC and coordinate with ARTCC for UHF radio contact with the target. (g) Assign one IND and IND-T as target monitor, monitoring target frequency throughout the mission. (h) Record GEOREF position of target aircraft at 5-minute intervals while target aircraft is within R-2508. (i) Unless otherwise specified in the Frag Order, utilize the 750 AC&W Squadron, Boron AFS, for tracking and intercept control during missions. Particular emphasis should be placed on target tracking throughout each mission.

X. Additional Instructions (1) Interceptor aircrews will wear pressure suits for all Hungry Boys II flights. (2) Particular care will be exercised by all concerned in planning target routes, supersonic opera- tions, interceptor break-away, etc. to avoid civil dis- turbances created by sonic booms. Acceleration and inter- cept activities will be confined to R-2508. (3) The ADC project officer, in coordination with the intercept controlling agency and Ftr Intcp Sq concerned, will establish minimum break-off and recovery fuel states and will plan alternate recovery bases for each mission. (4) All aircrews will be carefully briefed before each mission, with emphasis on safety, objectives, and requirement to adhere to briefed mission profiles in order that maximum valid data can be collected. (5) Intercept control will be manual GCI unless otherwise dictated. Utilization of SIF/IFF will be as briefed for the mission.

ADMINISTRATION. Announcement or release of information on the provisions of this order is not considered appropriate. Refer all queries from news media to Headquarters ADC (ADOTT-D). 5, COMMUNICATIONS. a, Due to the very limited time between notification of pending missions, it is mandatory that telephone communica- tions be the primary mean of forwarding the required informa- tion. Whenever necessary, telephone priorities will be used to expedite forwarding of pending mission information. ba UHF frequencies for communications between DC's, NGCI's, NCC's and target aircraft will be as pre-briefed. Due to the demanding mission of target aircrews, they will be unable to change frequencies, therefore, only one or two pre-briefed UHF frequencies should be used. C. If UHF radio contact cannot be established between the controlling agency and the target, intercepts will not be con- ducted. However, DC's will continue tracking the target and pass position reports to FAA. 6e REPORTING, All fighter interceptor and ground intercept control units will submit the following information to Head- quarters ADC. (Reports will be classified Confidential,) a. Target `1,1::ack- Target actual track, speed, altitude, time and position.
