The 82nd Aerial Targets Squadron provides a vital service in the testing of munitions-something to shoot at. F-4 Phantoms, many of which saw service in Vietnam and the 1991 Gulf War, fly missions both from Tyndall AFB, Fla., and the 82nd ATRS' Det. 1 at Holloman AFB, N.M. Reconfigured as targets (the "Q" designator) by BAE Systems, most still carry a pilot to take the controls if something goes awry.
