Viewing cable 04BOGOTA1558, AIR BRIDGE DENIAL: JANUARY 2004 PROGRAM UPDATE

If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number. Linking to a specific paragraph in the body of a cable is also possible by copying the appropriate link (to be found at theparagraph symbol). Please mark messages for social networking services like Twitter with the hash tags #cablegate and a hash containing the reference ID e.g. #04BOGOTA1558.

SUBJECT:  AIR BRIDGE DENIAL: JANUARY 2004 PROGRAM UPDATE 
 
REF:  A. 2003 STATE 265910 
 
1. (U) Summary:  Following is the January Air Bridge Denial 
(ABD) activity report required by ref A.  There were over 
4800 tracks sorted, of which 42 were declared Unidentified, 
Assumed Suspect (UAS) Tracks, with one Phase I and one Phase 
III event during the month.  ABD program issues of concern 
include the availability and basing of interceptors.  End 
Summary. 
 
ABD Tracks 
---------- 
 
2. (U) In January 2004, over 4800 tracks were sorted, of 
which 42 were declared UAS aircraft.  The GOC did not react 
to 28 UAS, 17 due to non-availability of assets or proximity 
to borders, seven due to proximity to international waters, 
two due to the track information being dated or 
insufficient, and the remaining two were eventually 
identified as friendly.  There was an interception on 
January 5 that did not proceed beyond phase I due to 
collateral damage concerns. 
 
Phase II Event 
---------------- 
 
3.  (SBU) On January 24, a track was picked up by ROTHR near 
the Brazilian border in the Dog's Head area.  A Citation was 
airborne nearby and was sent to intercept; a Colombian Air 
Force (FAC) "Arpia" (UH-60 with Miniguns) stationed at Mitu 
was also scrambled for this event.  The Citation intercepted 
the aircraft and accomplished visual ID of a two-engine, low 
wing aircraft bearing what appeared to be Brazilian 
identification.  The target aircraft subsequently landed at 
Caruru where it was pushed to the treeline and concealed 
with a fake building, plastic tarps, and vegetation.  The 
Citation accomplished several Phase I calls with no 
response, then completed phase II calls before proceeding 
with warning shots by the "Arpia".  GOC officials assessed 
that there was minimal likelihood of collateral damage and 
proceeded with phase III, resulting in destruction of the 
aircraft. (Note: In the course of subsequent Colombian 
National Police reinsertion operations, NAS Officer was able 
to confirm destruction of target aircraft and absence of 
collateral damage.) 
 
Ongoing Issues 
-------------- 
 
4.  (SBU) The FAC had deployed the "Arpia" helicopter to 
Mitu as part of the security package in support of President 
Uribe's visit the weekend of January 17.  This proved to be 
the decisive end-game asset that was not present during 
previous ABD events in the Dog's Head/Caruru area (there 
have been nine ABD events and numerous other tracks in this 
area since the ABD program was restarted in August 2003.) 
We expect the arrival of refurbished OV-10s to coincide with 
completion of repairs to the runway at Mitu.   Meanwhile, 
the GOC will retain "Arpia" helicopters at Mitu until OV-10s 
are deployed. 
 
5. (SBU) The GOC has repeatedly noted that the time required 
to perform Phase steps precluded bringing events to a 
conclusion.  For the January 24 Phase III, however, only 15 
minutes elapsed from request of ground Phase I to the target 
being destroyed.  This was accomplished despite repeated 
communications and an assessment of the possibility of 
collateral damage.  This event demonstrates that with assets 
properly located, the ABD required checklist steps can be 
performed in a reasonable time. 
 
6. (SBU) The Air Bridge Denial Semi-Annual Program 
Management Review (PMR) will be held February 24-25 at JIATF- 
S, Key West, FL.  Tentative program follows: 
 
-USG meeting 
-Combined Review of program accomplishments to date 
-Combined Review of Jan-Feb ABD Events 
-Combined Review of Program Goals, Objectives, and Measures 
of Effectiveness 
-ABD Asset (Citation/C-26/End Game aircraft) Status 
-C-560 Familiarization 
-US/GOC Issues 
-Road Ahead 
-Letter of Agreement (LOA) review 
 
Post is coordinating with GOC to obtain their LOA/PMR 
inputs. 
 
Organizations desiring to attend must coordinate by February 
16 with Mr Ezequiel Parrilla, NAS ABD program Advisor, 011-
