DET 10 1CEVG Hastings

DET 10, 1st Combat Evaluation Group (1CEVG), located in Hastings, Nebraska, was a United States Air Force unit responsible for radar bomb scoring (RBS) during the Cold War. The detachment operated sophisticated radar and electronic equipment to evaluate the accuracy of bomber crews during simulated bombing missions, ensuring readiness against potential adversaries. As part of the larger 1CEVG, DET 10 played a crucial role in Strategic Air Command (SAC) training and evaluation from the late 1950s through the 1980s. The unit was eventually inactivated as technological advancements and changing defense priorities reduced the need for ground-based RBS sites.
