Operation Credible Sport - it was a crash program for landing and taking off literally in the space of a soccer field for extraction of the Iran hostages.

It mostly worked but on one landing the forward firing rockets fired early and caused the airplane to lose all lift and drop in hard which broke the wing and started a fire. That plane was buried at Eglin to hide the secret mission.

I saw video of the tests a long time ago and it was spectacular. When the rockets went off, the flight crew couldn’t see a thing. Pretty crazy stuff.
