Laser Range Evaluation for the Goldwater Air Force Range, Luke Air Force Base, Arizona- Gila Bend Air Force Auxiliary Field

Abstract

At the request of the 58th Medical Group Bioenvironmental Engineer, Armstrong Laboratory personnel performed a laser range evaluation at the Luke Air Force Base Range. The lasers to be used, the various targets as well as the ranges, and finally the missions to be flown were all reviewed in order to assess the laser hazard and establish the Laser Surface Danger Zones (LSDZs). Appropriate recommendations were made for both manned and unmanned ranges. Laser range procedures were detailed as well as required medical surveillance requirements for range personnel and aircrews.
