Behind the Scenes of Titan II "Part 4 - Launch Sequence"

[@danshearer7627]

It's been a few years since the last visit. We need to visit again. Hyper-gols were some of my studies and the LR-87 was one of my research projects in the 80's. Thanks Dave.

Fantastic job Dave! I was on crew for 5 years, I was a commander assigned to 571-9. I pulled at least 10 alerts at the museum site. You bring back old memories, and remind me of my crew and life on alert! I would have been honored to have you on my crew. John Sears, MCCC R-193.

Thanks Dave, these videos are fascinating. I'd love to get the tour one day! G'day from Australia.

Well, we're missing a couple of critical steps, the BVL unlock code has to be entered and unlocked, and circuit breaker CB103 has to be set on. If that doesn't happen, it's not going to launch. Great video otherwise! Major Mark Clark, USAF (Ret), former senior DMCCC at MCAFB and LRAFB.

Curious, Chuck still around? Retired? Thanks for producing new content.

So assuming the crew successfully launched the missile and weren't hit in a retaliatory strike. What was their procedure for after the launch?

So assuming the crew successfully launched the missile and weren't hit in a retaliatory strike. What was their procedure for after the launch? - a little easier to understand.

wait for orders....that would never come.....☢☢☢☢

[@BIBSTERSrepairshop]

They had 30 days of air and water after that they would wait for orders or try and leave

[@redbudestate865]

@@haywoodjay385 it was early and on a phone, I updated the question to reflect your changes.

[@arkadyfolkner]

If they were not vaporized by the incoming nuke? Wait for further orders. They had 30 days of food and water, but the air would only last 21 days since the blast valve to their air shaft automatically slams closed. At the end of that time? Either go topside through the emergency escape trunk and hope it has not been buried in debris from a near miss, suffocate when the air goes bad, or use the bullets in the two .38 revolvers they carried on themselves.
