North Bend Air Force Station North Bend Air Force Station ( ADC ID : P - 12 , NORAD ID : Z - 12 ) is a closed United States Air Force General Surveillance Radar station . It is located north - northeast of Hauser , Oregon . It was closed in 1980 . History . North Bend Air Force Station was one of twenty - eight stations built as part of the second segment of the Air Defense Command permanent radar network . Prompted by the start of the Korean War , on July 11 , 1950 , the Secretary of the Air Force asked the Secretary of Defense for approval to expedite construction of the permanent network . Receiving the Defense Secretary ’ s approval on July 21 , the Air Force directed the Corps of Engineers to proceed with construction . The 761st Aircraft Control and Warning Squadron was activated at Reedsport , Oregon , on 7 February 1951 with AN / FPS - 3 and AN / FPS - 4 . With site P - 12 ' s activation , the temporary " lashup " site L - 33 at Portland shut down . The site was renamed North Bend AFS on 1 December 1953 , and initially the station functioned as a Ground - Control Intercept ( GCI ) and warning station . As a GCI station , the squadron ' s role was to guide interceptor aircraft toward unidentified intruders picked up on the unit ' s radar scopes . In 1955 an AN / FPS - 8 was installed . The radar subsequently was converted into an AN / GPS - 3 , and removed in 1956 . In 1957 an AN / FPS - 6 took over height - finder duties . An AN / FPS - 6B was added in 1959 . This site began operating an AN / FPS - 7 search radar in 1960 . During 1960 North Bend AFS joined the Semi Automatic Ground Environment ( SAGE ) system , feeding data to DC - 13 at Adair AFS , Oregon . After joining , the squadron was redesignated as the 761st Radar Squadron ( SAGE ) on 15 July 1960 . The radar squadron provided information 24 / 7 the SAGE Direction Center where it was analyzed to determine range , direction altitude speed and whether or not aircraft were friendly or hostile . By 1963 AN / FPS - 26 A and AN / FPS - 90 radars were performing height - finding duties . On 31 July 1963 , the site was redesignated as NORAD ID Z - 12 . The AN / FPS - 7 was subsequently upgraded to an AN / FPS - 107 model . In addition to the main facility , North Bend operated several AN / FPS - 14 Gap Filler sites : Over the years , the equipment at the station was upgraded or modified to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the information gathered by the radars . In 1979 North Bend came under Tactical Air Command ( TAC ) jurisdiction with the inactivation of Aerospace Defense Command and the creation of ADTAC . The 761st Radar Squadron ( SAGE ) was inactivated 11 February 1980 as a result of budget restrictions , and the general phase down of air defense radar stations . With the station ' s closure , the site was turned over to the state of Oregon and it is now used as the Shutter Creek Correctional Institution ( minimum - security prison )
XM307 Advanced Crew Served Weapon The XM307 Advanced Crew Served Weapon ( ACSW ) was a developmental 25 mm belt - fed grenade machine gun with smart shell capability . It is the result of the " OCSW " or " Objective Crew Served Weapon " project . It is lightweight and designed to be two - man portable , as well as vehicle mounted . The XM307 can kill or suppress human beings out to 2 , 000 meters ( 2 , 187 yd ) , and destroy lightly armored vehicle s , watercraft , and helicopter s at 1 , 000 meters ( 1 , 094 yd ) . The project was canceled in 2007 . Overview . The system was under development by General Dynamics Armament and Technical Products for the U . S . Army Tank - Automotive and Armaments Command ( TACOM ) . As a part of the " Small Arms Master Plan " ( SAMP ) program , it is intended to either replace or supplement the Mk19 automatic grenade launcher and the M2 heavy machine gun . It fires 25 mm point - detonating and air burst style ammunition , including HE , and HEAT at a cyclic rate of 260 rounds per minute and has an effective range up to 2 kilometers . The primary feature of the XM307 is its attenuated recoil system . The weapon controls recoil to a degree that a large tripod and heavy sandbag s are not required to effectively employ this weapon . Because of its reduced recoil impulse and light weight , other mounting options are possible , such as small unmanned vehicles and aircraft . The XM307 ' s airburst rounds make it much easier to bypass walls protecting enemies that could cause collateral damage if fired upon directly . Operators do not have to shoot through the wall , just through an opening or over the top to kill the people behind the cover , leaving the structure of the building intact . An additional feature of the XM307 is that it can be converted into the XM312 , a . 50 - caliber version for infantry and light anti - armor support in under two minutes ( 1 minute , 42 seconds ) . Specifications . System Gun Variants . A Remotely Operated Variant ( ROV ) for the Future Combat Systems family of vehicles is also under development . The weapon system , which would be mounted on the vehicle , will be remotely operated from within the vehicle . Program status . In May 2004 , the development phase was funded through FY 2007 . In December 2005 funding was granted for a remotely operated vehicle variant . However in 2007 the project canceled due to the low rate of fire of the prototypes .
211th Rescue Squadron The 211th Rescue Squadron ( 211th RQS ) is a unit of the Alaska Air National Guard 176th Wing located at Joint Base Elmendorf - Richardson , Anchorage , Alaska .

These aircraft extend the range of the wing ’ s HH - 60G Pave Hawk helicopters with an air refueling capability . Established on 8 October 2004 by the Air Force Special Operations Command as part of a re - organization of Air National Guard rescue units which created separate squadrons for fixed - wing , helicopter and pararescue elements of the 210th Rescue Squadron . All three squadrons are assigned to the 176th Operations Group . The HH - 60 helicopter flight became 210th Rescue Squadron ; the HC - 130P Hercules flight become the 211th Rescue Squadron , and the pararescue flight became the 212th Rescue Squadron . When in a theater of combat , squadron members operate at the direction of the overall theater combatant commander and the theater ' s commander of air forces . In these situations , the 211th is primarily assigned to conduct personnel recovery operations — rescuing downed airmen or other isolated personnel from enemy territory , for example . In addition to combat search - and - rescue missions like these , the 211th may also conduct collateral missions : noncombatant evacuation operations , inter - and intra - theater airlift , and support of special operations forces , for example . Back at home , the 211th Rescue Squadron is part of a network of search - and - rescue organizations that save hundreds of lives in and around Alaska every year . This network includes not only the 211th ' s sister squadrons in the 176th Wing , but also such agencies as the U . S . Coast Guard , the Alaska State Troopers , the National Park Service , the Civil Air Patrol and others . Other 211th missions include non - combat search and rescue ( SAR ) , emergency aeromedical evacuations , humanitarian relief , international aid , counter - drug activities , and support for NASA flight operations .
