The targets the Hustler II hunts are mobile, low profile and high

The original Hustler was still around when I was in the USAF. Delta
wing, four engines suspended below the wings in the usual fashion.
Supersonic. Had a big pod with fuel and the H-bomb. Good looking
plane. [Hard to believe the Concorde could carry enough fuel to cross
the Atlantic at mach two.] Both planes were predicated on ten cent jet
fuel. Oil was two bucks a barrel. Those days paperback books,
magazines, cigs, gas, six packs, were all a quarter. The consumer
price index has gone up a third as much as the above. Lying sacks of
****. Loaf of bread, quart of milk, a dime. I don't know what milk is
today, wife buys it, but its probably cheap since they have always
overproduced it. But I digress.
