Ordnance Impact Areas

Singapore Rapier Test Fire

Several designated ordnance impact areas are available within the WTF for inert and live ordnance trials.

The primary sites are depicted on the Ranges map and comprise:

• Lake Hart Air Weapons Range (LHAWR) for the release of live munitions from aircraft, and also ground-based missile and artillery firings
• Parakylia Stand-Off Target Area (PASTA) for the firing of inert ordnance (eg AGM-142 missiles)
• Target areas A and B for the release of inert ordnance

Other areas of the WTF can also be used for the release of inert weapons (and other objects) subject to safety, environmental and recovery considerations. Aircraft release trials are normally managed from the Range Control Centre.
