    RAF Bomber Command: Episode 4

    In the 4th episode we follow Frank Griggs and the new direction of RAF Bomber Command. By this point in 1942 the RAF was producing massive amounts of new aircraft and crews. They also changed tactics to attack single targets with concentrated forces. After transitioning to the Shorts Sterling four engine bomber as a Sargent Pilot, Frank and his crew participated in the initial 1000 bomber raids. During one hair raising mission Frank’s aircraft were attacked by night fighters. After shooting two of the attackers down he was able to pilot his stricken plan to a crash landing at his home airfield, a mission where he and his crew were awarded the Distinguished Flying Medal by the King of England. After completing 30 missions, Frank applied to be, and was commissioned, an officer. Due to his record, he was hand-picked to fly the new, top secret, Mk9 Mosquito pathfinder.

    The Supersonic Bone: Episode 11

    In Episode 11 of The Supersonic Bone Ken ’Prime Time’ Katz interviews Lt. General Richard ‘Harpo’ Clark (ret) about the use of the B-1 in Operation Iraqi Freedom. General Clark describes the deployment of the B-1 to Oman and supporting Operation Enduring Freedom while waiting for the order to attack. Once the order was given General Clark discusses how a bomber designed for delivering nuclear weapons at low levels changed to delivering conventional ordnance at a high level. The inherent flexibility and capability of the B-1 design allowed multiple pre-planned targets to be attacked, then loitering to be available to hit dynamic targets on-demand.

    ISR: Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance

    In this this week’s episode guest host John “Rain” Waters from the Afterburn podcast https://www.theafterburnpodcast.com/ interviews Anthony Gentile about ISR, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance. Flying MQ-9’s during his career in the Air Force, Anthony talks about the evolution of Unmanned ISR platforms from something that people were skeptical about, to something that proved its value over time. With the ability to loiter for long periods these platforms could establish a pattern of life that allowed to attack of targets with the best possibility of success, while minimizing collateral damage. Anthony discusses the challenges of operating aircraft all over the world, supporting multiple units, each with their own Rules of Engagement.

    RAF Bomber Command: Episode 1

    In the first episode in our new series of the RAF Bomber Command, Scott ‘Roger’ Chafian and Lance ‘Boil’ Lewis provide an overview of the history of the RAF leading up to the beginning of Word War II. With visions of being the strategic force to project power, in 1939 the Bomber Command was a small force of two engine bombers. While starting to build the force, Bomber Command went through a massive transformation from using bombers to attack military targets during the daytime to area bombing at nighttime. Leveraging the Commonwealth nations of Canada and Australia to train pilots in a sanctuary, “Boil” begins to share his personal connection to the story.

    Anti-Submarine Warfare: Episode 2

    In Episode 2 of ASW Basics, Roger and Sunshine review the various methods of detecting a submarine. Prior to nuclear power, submarines spent much of their time on or near the surface making visual or use of radar the principal ways of detection. With the advent of nuclear power and air independent propulsion, everything changed. Listening, or passive detection, became key. Roger and Sunshine discuss the characteristics of water that influence the ability of the submarine hunters to detect and locate a submarine, even identifying specific submarines based on their individual sound signatures.

    Two Seat Hornets in the US Marine Corp

    In this week’s podcast Scott ‘Roger’ Chafian talks to Paul ‘Booger’ Holst about a topic seldom explored, Two Seat Hornets in the US Marine Corp. ‘Booger’ explains the reasoning behind having using the ‘D’, maintaining the (AW) in squadron designations, and the differences in use between the ‘C” and the ‘D’ versions of the Hornet in the USMC. Starting out as a single seat Hornet pilot allowed ‘Booger’ to see both sides of the topic, and most importantly how each supported the Marines on the ground.
