Title: Unauthorized Entry/Vandalism to an F-111E at RAF Upper Heyford, UK
5. Observation: At approximately 0330 hours, 21 March 1990, two British males illegally entered RAF Upper Heyford and damaged an F-111E aircraft (approximately $550,000) which was parked on a hardstand inside a restricted area. These members of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) approached the base perimeter, cut a hole in the perimeter fence at a remote location, and surreptitiously entered the restricted area. They ran up to an F-111E parked in front of Hardened Aircraft Shelter (HAS) 39, where one of the subjects climbed into the cockpit and with a hammer in each hand, began striking the inside of the cockpit. The individual on the ground attached antiwar signs to the aircraft. This individual then produced a hammer and began striking the wingtip fuel tank. The alarm response team (ART), located approximately 150 meters away, responded to the scene, challenged the two subjects, and placed them under apprehension. The two subjects were turned over to Ministry of Defense (MOD) police. This was a marked departure from previous nonviolent Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND) activities
