Since the 1950s, mysterious form Lockeed U-2 aircraft hovered quietly above all the hot spots above the Earth's recording activity below the advantageous xronos positions are far above the clouds. Having undergone a complete redesign in the mid-1960s xronos to become U-2R, much bigger and more powerful, this shadow observer remained far one of the principal means of gathering information of America.
Graceful and also well adapted to the needs for which it was designed, U-2 aircraft company Lockeed amounted year 1august1955 air for the first time. He designed and built afost year Inteliigence secret Central Agency (CIA) and was used to provide the organization photographic images of installations located deep within the year the Soviet Union. The first U-2 variants were purchased by the U.S. Air Force, and they were involved in reconnaissance missions which included the collection of data resulting xronos from nuclear partuculele Soviet atomic bomb tests. In 1962 appliances chariot USAF U-2 was active implicatefoarte flights over Cuba during the Missile Crisis.
The first versions of the U-2A to U-2G reached a remarkable record of service fulfilling thousands of missions above the hostile territories of the United States to provide valuable xronos information to end-începâmd anilor1950 and early 1960s, while adding numerous scientific in flight at high altitude performance data on entry into the atmosphere and experiences nucleare.Începând 1964 afost device xronos used over Vietnam milled xronos fighting.
The CIA had already xronos adopted the color scheme better known, being completely black. By mid anului1960 number of units of the first U2 variants dramatically decreased due to losses, while related applications were increasing espionage. Meanwhile Lockeed investigated how the project could modernize and finally came up with a larger version, with payload and flight xronos distamţă higher. Following a request from the CIA, the main operator of the U-2, the first six planes went by the agency, the following six reaching the U.S. Air Force. The new aircraft entered service shortly after making its inaugural flight in 1967 and soon proved to be superior in almost every point of view compared to the first variant. In addition to increasing payload, and flight ceiling, landing was much easier to correct the problem so that afectasa first planes. AIR AGENCY CIA planes belonging immediately entered service, operating on the basis of several parts of the world, especially in Taiwan, where he had been sent to two devices in 1968 to work with Chinese nţionaliştilor insignia. This program ended in 1974 and with it, and use by CIA aircraft, all copies are then passed to the Air Force. U-2R aircraft in the U.S. Air Force were used extensively during the Vietnam War, mainly based on the Royal Air Force U-Tapao Thai Thailand. Plane U + 2 remained active in service during the Iraq War aircraft carrier testing in November 1969, test pilot Bill Park at Lockeed four CIA pilots transferred to NASA in Wallops Island base started to develop a new capacity. USS America off the coast wait while Park was preparing to make the first landing a U-2 plane on an aircraft carrier. Despite the success of an aircraft carrier We hit the U-2R's ability to operate from an aircraft carrier has never been used in operations dincauza major disruption they were causing the U-2 operations formation Aioane on board the aircraft carrier . However remaining CIA pilots xronos trained for several years for flights aboard aircraft carriers.
