low-altitude bombing

The gains in aircraft performance that came with high altitude flight were not significant enough to justify switching from low-altitude bombing.

We can increase our flexibility on land with light-armored vehicles and aircraft, such as the A-10, that are designed for low-altitude bombing and strafing.

It was also the first weapon to be delivered using the toss method with the help of the low-altitude bombing system (LABS).

There the crews received intensive training for three weeks in simulated carrier deck takeoffs, low-level and night flying, low-altitude bombing, and over-water navigation.

A new technological innovation in the early 1950s, LABS was a component of the flight control system; it controlled an aircraft automatically during low-altitude bombing.

A1 NATO warplanes have begun flying more low-altitude bombing raids against Yugoslav forces in Kosovo, a practice that until now was ruled out as too dangerous.

Tactical Air Command aircraft were equipped with Low-Altitude Bombing System (LABS) for delivering nuclear bombs.

Night/adverse weather version of A4D-2, with AN/APG-53A radar, autopilot, LABS low-altitude bombing system.

Low-altitude bombing missions over Europe could thus be flown from bases in Britain or elsewhere in Europe or, with the help of aerial tankers, from the United States itself.

A Strategic Air Command B-47E Stratojet of the 380th Bomb Wing, Plattsburgh AFB, New York, on low-altitude bombing run training mission, was reported overdue at 0700 hrs.

British military officials said today that the war was going so well that for now they were abandoning the dangerous low-altitude bombing missions against Iraqi airfields that have resulted in the deaths or capture of several British airmen.

By the start of the Vietnam War, a new computerized bombing predictor, called the Low-Altitude Bombing System (LABS), began to be integrated into the systems of aircraft equipped to carry nuclear armaments.

He executed several low-altitude bombing and strafing runs on enemy ships; during one of these attacks, he became the first man to sink a warship, the Japanese destroyer Kisaragi, with small caliber bombs delivered from a fighter aircraft.
