A high-speed sequence of the second of two RIM-7 NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) Sea Sparrow missiles launched from US Navy (USN) Aircraft Carrier USS KITTY HAWK (CV 63) on its way to intercept a remote-controlled drone, during an exercise to test the ships defense capability. The RIM-7M Sea Sparrow is an active radar-guided, surface-to-air missile, with a high-explosive blast fragmentation warhead. Currently under way in the 7th Fleet area of responsibility (AOR), the HAWK is Americas oldest active warship, and the first of the modern "super carriers" commissioned in 1961

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
