A target towing T-33A Shooting Star on its way to the runway of Souda. Both targets can be seen underneath the wings. These iron "bombs" are slowly released on a very long thin cable and subsequently pulled behind the aircraft. Air Defense systems try to locate the target and even shoot at it... that's the reason the T-33 is bright coloured to arrest maximal attention.
