Ghazni Province, Afghanistan – Task Force Iron Rakkasan launched the first flight of the blimp over Forward Operating Base Andar November 17th.

The blimp, properly known as a Persistent Threat Detection System, allows a 360 degree, all-weather, birds’-eye view of the surrounding area, with very little restrictions.

The PTDS, a Lockheed Martin system, requires two people to operate it at any given time. Alfred Henderson, a PTDS crew member from Portsmouth, VA, specializes in the maintenance of the system’s platform but, like all of the operators, is well trained on the entire system.

The Precision Threat Decision System blimp inflates in preparation for first flight at Forward Operating Base Andar Nov. 17th. The PTDS system will increase security in the district by preventing enemy freedom of movement. (U.S. Army courtesy photo)
