And here's a biggie, I forgot about the Bloodhound sites
Figures are from a file at Kew on the 2nd build up of the UK Bloodhound Mk2 force from 1976 to 82 and the 25 and 85 Sqn F540's up to the end of 1982. (first build up was 63 - 66 with no UK cover at all between 70 - 73). Bloodhound Mk 2 specs are from a number of declassified trials reports from Woomera and Aberporth dating up to 1980 held at the National Archives at Kew.
This was what was about in the 85 - 88 time frame.
85 Sqn
A Flt - RAF West Raynham
MS1 (Green Section) T87 (1976-86) T86 (1986-91) 8 Launchers
MS2 (Black Section) T87 (1976-86) T86 (1986-91) 8 Launchers
MS Eng (Orange Section) T87 (1977-86) T86 (1986-91) 6 Launchers
(MS Eng was primarily an engineering test bed, but could (and was) declared operational when required).
B Flt - RAF North Coates
MS3 (Brown Section) T87 (1977-87) T86 (1987-90) 8 Launchers
MS4 (Blue Section) T87 (1977-87) T86 (1987-90) 8 Launchers
MS5 (White Section) T87 (1977-87) T86 (1987-90) 8 Launchers
C Flt - RAF Bawdsey
MS6 (Yellow Section) T87 (1979-88) T86 (1988-90) 6 Launchers
MS7 (Purple Section) T87 (1979-88) T86 (1988-90) 6 Launchers
D Flt - RAF West Raynham
MS8 (Pink Section) T86 (1982-89) 6 Launchers
MS9 (Silver Section (Grey Section (82-83)) T86 (1982-91) 6 Launchers
(D Flt were formed to go to Watton, then it was decided that they would go to Coltishall. Neither move happened and the flight was absorbed into A Flt in 1989 with one section being withdrawn from use).
25 Sqn
A Flt - Barkston Heath (became D Flt 85 Sqn in 1989)
Osprey Section T86 (1983-90) 8 Launchers
Falcon Section T86 (1983-90) 8 Launchers
B Flt - Wyton (became F Flt 85 Sqn in 1989)
Griffon Section T86 (1983-90) 8 Launchers
Kestrel Section T86 (1983-90) 8 Launchers
C Flt - Wattisham (Was 85 Sqn E Flt from 1981 to 83 after becoming the first flight to return from West Germany, became E Flt 85 Sqn again in 1989. While on 85 Sqn from 81-83 they were called MS10 (Gold Section) and MS11 (Silver Section)).
Eagle Section T86 (1982-91) 6 Launchers
Merlin Section T86 (1982-91) 6 Launchers
Total number of missiles held by the Sqns as ready used rounds were number of missiles on all launchers plus 100% reloads
Thus
68 Ready Use Missiles at West Raynham (inc 34 on Launcher)
48 Ready Use Missiles at North Coates (inc 24 on Launcher)
24 Ready Use Missiles at Bawdsey (inc 12 on Launcher)
32 Ready Use Missiles at Barkston Heath (inc 16 on Launcher)
32 Ready Use Missiles at Wyton (inc 16 on Launcher)
24 Ready Use Missiles at Wattisham (inc 12 on Launcher)
Another 70 or so missiles would be going through the servicing chain as either scheduled servicing or with defects at the Missile Servicing Flights at West Raynham and North Coates. (though at the end a good 30 rounds were unusable due to airframe corrosion of the 290 odd that were left).
Missile specs:
Powered Range 100NM
Engagement Envelope: 150ft at radar horizon - 65000 ft (note Bloodhound Mk 2 did not like low level targets over water due to a number of reasons thus its minimum target height for guaranteed minimum homing errors at min range was around 300 ft, rising to 1800 ft at 30NM from the launcher if the target was over water).
Min Range 7NM
Best case intercept range
T87 Radar - 108NM non manoeuvring Mach 0.8 target at around 30,000 to 40,000ft (T87 Radar had a 90% chance of detection a 10Sq M RCS target in non ECM enviroment at round a range of 140NM) - Missile could glide a little bit after the fuel ran out and on a long range engagement it cruised at 50,000ft most of the way.
T86 Radar - 75MN manoeuvring target at 30,000 ft+ (T86 Radar had a 90% chance of detection a 10Sq M RCS target in non ECM enviroment at round a range of 90NM). Missile fuel range exceeded radar range.
Speed Mach 2.6-2.7 at 50,000ft (dependant on what AP you read). Missile was limited to M2.4 below 4000ft.
Target speed range limits M1.2 at S/L, M2 above 20,000ft
Warhead Kill proablitiy at up to 70 feet miss distance
Badger 100% (Mach 0.5 to 0.8)
Blinder 100% (Mach 0.5 to 1.2)
Foxbat 72% (Mach 0.5 to 2)
Maximum savlo size on any engagement by one section against a single target was 2 missiles in a 9 second apart ripple firing. Reload time per launcher around 15-30 minutes. The Missile Section (MS) was designed to support 2 groups of 4 launchers which allowed one group to be available for firing while the other group was being reloaded.
