The photo reconnaissance mission required a high level of aircrew proficiency, and could be as challenging and exciting as any TACAIR missions. The F-14 performed “recce” using TARPS – a massive pod on the Tomcat’s belly that carried multiple cameras – for much of its career.
We interview RIOs from early and later in the TARPS program, “Rooter” Root and “Santa” Noel, respectively, who describe everything from mission preparation to high-profile flights and combat missions. In addition, technical expert “Kodak” Tennyson, a former limited duty officer (LDO), adds details on camera capabilities, film handling, the TARPS program, and more.
Remember: smile, you’re on camera!
