	Operation Credible Sport - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Operation Credible Sport, also known as Operation Honey Badger, was a United States military operation plan in late 1980 to rescue the hostages held on American soil in Iran using C-130 cargo planes modified with rocket engines.
		The Credible Sport operation was to follow the dramatic failure of Operation Eagle Claw in which a C-130 Hercules and a Sea Stallion helicopter collided in the Iranian desert, killing 8 servicemen.
		Credible Sport was abandoned after the election of Ronald Reagan as President in November, 1980.

	Operation Eagle Claw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Operation Eagle Claw (or Operation Evening Light) was a United States military operation to rescue the 53 hostages from the U.S. embassy in Tehran, Iran on April 24, 1980.
		The operation was a failure, and had a severe impact on U.S. President Jimmy Carter's re-election prospects; on a military level, it led to the creation of the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) and the U.S. Army 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment (the Night Stalkers).
		The concept of USSOCOM was born and finally established, and was placed into operation in the 1988-1989 time period.

		Unlike the sports glider though, a military glider could not use atmospheric currents or thermals to remain aloft for a considerable amount of time or even be made to climb due to weight, construction, and design.
		To signal the start of the operation, instead, parachutists were to drop on and seize three airfields — at first without any definite axis of attack and then expanding zones of control with follow-on forces, landed by glider and transport, until finally they ran together, like oil spots, extending over the island’s 170-mile length.
		Operation Repulse organized in the midst of the 1944 German winter Ardennes offensive due to a lack of parachute containers and para-packing units in the European Theater of Operations, ferried by glider a replacement field hospital accompanied by four surgeons to the American 101st Airborne Division encircled at Bastogne.

		That plan was code-named Credible Sport, and involved modifying C-130 cargo planes with rocket-assist engines so that these colossal planes could actually land and take off entirely inside a particular soccer stadium in Tehran (at night, no less).
		Note, however, that the confined conditions envisioned for Credible Sport required the use of both braking rockets -- to slow down the airspeed -- and descent rockets -- to fire down and achieve a soft landing a bit like the moon capsule.
		At any rate, it's now believed or understood that the hostages were dispersed and the operation would have failed to secure them all, and the risks to hostages' lives during such a rescue were already known to be enormous.

		In the past, twin-engine aircraft, especially those operating out of short fields in forward areas, usually did not survive the loss of an engine on a heavy-weight takeoff.
		The C-130 radar permitted it to operate in a much wider range of weather, and this capability led logically to it being employed later as a gunship.
