Gambit-3 34

  1972-016A


The first GAMBIT flight of 1972 was launched on Mar 17 from Vandenberg. The mission lasted 25 days (24 days photographic). Launch vehicle for this flight was the Titan 23B Agena D according to Martin Marietta documents; this is probably just a new designation for the IIIB rather than a new variant of the vehicle.  The vehicle was deorbited over Eniwetok as part of the VAST 4 reentry-survival experiment.
