Eagerly awaited by the population local to the Salisbury Plain Training Area was the annual firepower demonstration at Larkhill which is situated on the eastern edge of the SPTA. Just about every type of weapon was unleashed on the range targets. Even an "Honest John" missile was fired off on at least one occasion(1962) XV219 is demonstrating an Ultra Low Level Airdrop(ULLA) on an unusually damp day. The extraction chutes are out of the picture. View looking north with a couple of 'Tank' targets visible in the background. It was delivered to Lockheed in December 2000 and scrapped.
