In the mid-60's, on the other side of the planet, we ran missions 
putting a transportable TACAN on the air for as long as the JP-4 for the 
400 Hz turbine alternators lasted [~10-15 days].  Then, we piled all the 
gear on top, several thermite packs on that, and pulled the tapes.  It 
reduced EVERYTHING to molten slag ... sadly including two brand new 
KWM-2A's each time. [:=((((
