USAF F-16B block 1 #78-0097 explodes, sending debris and shrapnel into the air on August 19th on the Eglin AFB range. The explosion was a static test of the flight termination system to be used in the QF-16. The purpose was to demonstrate that the FTS design will be sufficient to immediately terminate the flight of a QF-16 as well as determine a range safety debris footprint.
