Summary

[edit]
Description
Nederlands: Het hoofd Maritime Warfare Centre, kapitein ter zee Harrie Welmer, verbleef in 1990 met toenmalig ranggenoot luitenant ter zee 2OC Frits de Gelder ruim 6 maanden aan de Amerikaanse Westkust. Ze hoorden bij het analyse- en een begeleidingsteam voor de Goalkeeperbeproevingen van de KM, de Royal Navy en Hollandse Signaalapparaten. Doel was de VS ervan te overtuigen dat de Goalkeeper het perfecte wapen was om de schepen van de US Navy te beschermen. De tests vonden plaats op het Pacific Missile Test Centre op Naval Air Station Point Mugu, ten noorden van Los Angeles. "We vuurden met de Goalkeeper speciale Nederlandse wolfraammunitie af, gemaakt om direct in te slaan op de warhead van de raket: zogenoemde Missile Piercing Discarding Sabot (MPDS)-munitie", herinnert Welmer zich 30 jaar na dato. "Die was speciaal ontwikkeld voor de Goalkeeper. We deden eerst de validatietests voor de Goalkeeper. Die verliepen prima. Daarna zijn er in totaal 9 live raketten op de Goalkeeper afgeschoten, zowel single shot als dual shot: Exocets, Harpoons en Vandals, de gemodificeerde Talos-raket."
