CHAPTER FOUR T-<strong>45</strong> <strong>WEAPONS</strong>/<strong>STRIKE</strong><br />

Minimum Ejection Altitudes<br />

4-12 PRE<strong>FLIGHT</strong> PREPARATION<br />

Figure 4-9 Unsymmetrical Maneuvering<br />

This chart is found in the NATOPS and should be reviewed and understood.<br />

Always review the notes at the bottom of the chart.<br />

For a 30 degree dive, the minimum ejection altitude is 650’ AGL.<br />

For a 20 degree dive, the minimum ejection altitude is <strong>45</strong>0’ AGL.<br />

For a 10 degree dive, the minimum ejection altitude is 200’ AGL.<br />

These are AGL altitudes and need to be converted to MSL altitudes for target elevation.<br />

As the notes say, these are based on initiation of the ejection system, pilot reaction time is not<br />

included.
