The Ho Chi Minh Trail was used by the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army to move soldiers and supplies between North and South Vietnam. In 1967, the U.S. Air Force began air-dropping sensors along it, monitored around the clock by surveillance aircraft. Initially, modified Lockheed Super Constellations, called “Batcats,” with crews of 18 or more, risked many lives over hostile territory. The Air Force then chose the Beechcraft Model 33 “Debonair,” designated QU-22A, equipped with electronic gear, to relay ground sensor signals from 24,000 feet, with most missions including a pilot. In 1968, five QU-22As replaced the Super Constellations, with the 55th Reconnaissance Wing at Nakhon Phanom, Thailand, flying 62 successful combat missions.
