Yep, and pronounced DIM-PEE. Many of these targets show up on the USGS topo maps. If you use the ACME mapper, you can go between USGS topo and Google
satellite(which is essentially the same as google earth).

If you buy the range map (used to be free), many targets are listed. If you have access to the Nellis SPINS, there is even more detail. I will spare
ATS from having a link to information that wasn't supposed to be on the internet, but googling Nellis SPINS will eventually get you some interesting
information. Nellis didn't bother to have the data removed even though it is 6 years old. Needless to say, it has been archived by lots of people.
Note that there are photo targets on ranges too. Not everything has to be bombed. Edwards has planes along the southern boarder for photo targets.
Creech has wooden SU-27 targets.
Last of all, there are targets just for "drops." Could be people or cargo. My Cedar Pipeline page has the coordinates of the drop zones, though the
signs to the drop zones were removed after my photographs of them were put on the net.

Note that the Rolands in those photos no longer look like that. Everything manned on the range is now white.
I put my hand on the monitor and don't sense the frequencies emanating from the target. ;-)
