Automated mission of the 1st United States spy satellite program. Includes launch tower, Thor-Agena D rocket, and spy camera payload. Launch from Droo Main Launch site
.
Select target before launch(min distance 300 km from launch site), then "throttle" up to initiate program that will launch to orbit(at target heading), align camera to face the surface, adjust orbit for close fly-over, capture a picture using a slightly modified HoverAerospace GPS MFD, then continue orbit back to a splashdown near the Droo Launch Center for recovery.
.
For Manual Flight - "Brake" before starting the launch to cancel program, Auto staging will remain active - so just throttle up afterwards

@SmurfResearchX
yep they have a lot off classified paylod in space, and one of the major operator for spy sat is the NRO, to be honest when i was making my corona satelite i did have accèses to a lot of documment that was deslassified from the NRO, and when you see all what they have with the technology back then imagine what they have now -

@GrizzlitnCFSP so, are you saying they had (present)-day tech back in the 60’s? Cool!
