I didn't find anything about Momentum bomb project in the forum. In Chris Gibson & Tony Buttler's book "British secret projects: Hypersonics, Ramjets & missles" this project names "RAE Momentum bomb": and "Vickers Momentum bomb": What does it mean? And I have another question. Do you have any...

Rover developed gas turbines for automotive applications, development continued after the marque's absorption by Leyland in 1967. In addition to automotive applications Rover also produced gas turbines for APU applications, as described here. They also went as far as testing them in aircraft...

I should know the answer to this. When does Lance first emerge as a likely replacement for Honest John and Sergeant and even Corporal, given its range. I only ask because Lance does seem to make Blue Water pretty pointless as it has better range and more mobile with its M548 based launcher...

Came across this while researching something totally different. This project was first proposed by Dr. Frank Malina (one of the founders of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory) in late 1960 as an ideal candidate for the first activity of the just formed Academy of Astronautics (now known as the...

This rather obscure Sweden weapon system, actually, quite interesting: It is the first Western shipborne anti-ship missile ever commissioned, and the only one Western SSM close to Soviet cotemporary analogues (like P-15 "Termit"). Interesting to note, that it seems to be essentially an...

Those of you who remember the old Gerry Anderson tv shows may not remember a 60s comic called TV21. It had stories based on the Anderson shows but also a strip devoted to the Daleks but without a certain Doctor. I always wanted to see a crossover between the two worlds. Some years back I did a...

There are various threads covering the Type 82 but none (nor in books and online) trace the evolution of the design through the images published in the 60s by the MOD and any subsequent reference. There is an excellent drawing in Brown/Moore's Rebuilding the Royal Navy I wonder if anyone with...

Based on earlier posts in this thread, this appears to be a model of the single-seat Boeing 818 variant. My understanding of the TFX requirement is that it always was a two-seater (early ones were tandem, and later side x side). So I'm not sure where this fits in ...

Is there anywhere in this fine forum which gives more indepth information into the proposed Saab 37E and Saab 37X variants of the Viggen? The Saab 37E was proposed as a Lockheed F-104 replacement for European NATO airforces in 1975; While the Saab 37X was proposed to Norway in 1967–68. Ive...

Not trying to provoke either side of the current debate but I am old enough to remember a time when the 6 original members of the European Community discussed the setting up of a full blown EDF in the 1960s. It was never a runner politically but had it been, I imagine the following equipment...

Found on SDASM archive on Flickr Album Convair had Study in 1960 a Three Stage Atlas Centaur with smaller Centaur as Third Stage

Hi, the well known British company,Jackaroo,which built the Thruxton light aircraft based on DH Tiger Moth,it also developed the Paragon,a low-wing light aircraft in 1960s,powered by one 180 hp Lycoming O-360-AIA engine,I think it remained a Project,but I am not sure...

I found some interesting articles on small nuclear reactors and maritime reactors from the 1960s. The business case they make for the small reactors as well as how to construct and run them economically are quite similar to those made for small modular reactors today. New Scientist No. 288 (24...

Does anybody have information about this plane, maybe AF VG project, or information about Mirage G3,G5,G6, fiction projects or true. Thanks in advance
