Bloodhound Mk1 orbat

My understanding is that the Bloodhound Mk1 orbat (ISD 59-64/65) was 4 Wings:

21 Wg HQ Lindholme- 94Sqn Misson, 112 Sqn Breighton, 247 Sqn Carnaby

24 Wg HQ Watton- 242 Sqn Marham, 263 Sqn Watton, 266 Sqn Rattlesden

148 Wg HQ North Coates- 141 Sqn Dunholme Lodge, 222 Sqn Woodhall Spa, 264 Sqn North Coates (+ Service Trials Unit)

151 Wg HQ North Luffenham- 67 Sqn Woolfox Lodge, 237 Sqn Warboys

Also trials firing unit at Aberporth & training site at Newton. Some firings also at Woomera.

Bloodhound Mk2 started to be introduced in late 63 (North Coates trials unit) & ISDs 64/65 onwards. OSD 93.
