The GB 3/L was a glide bomb project based on the aerodynamic solutions developed for the Lippisch P.12 by the Deutsche Forschungsanstalt für Segelflug.
Designed in July 1944 to compete against the antiship missile Henschel Hs 293D, it could transport a warhead of 250 kg at 800 km/h and reach...

There have been several discussions about the British aircraft of the 60s since I started here a few weeks ago, apparently it's a never ending topic. They appear to start out technically and end financially and politically in a viscous circle of failure. In the process some interesting and...

The Soviet Navy evolved anti ship missiles for its warships sooner than the West because it was faced with NATO's large surface fleets and their aircraft carriers.
The spur to Western nations seems to have been the arrival of new Soviet large surface units in the 60s and the sinking of an...

Information remain rather scarce about the origins of the Penguin missile, adopted by US Navy as AGM-119. It was developped by Kongsberg and FFI, but little known about the early concepts.
The same is true about its derivatives. Jane's mentions a coastal launcher prototype.
Of particular concern is information related to the Sea Dragon anti-ship missile program, a project of the Pentagon’s Strategic Capabilities Office that was being developed by submarine builder General Dynamics Electric Boat...

XSSM-1 PROVING EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE IN U.S.
Tokyo AEROSPACE JAPAN-WEEKLY in English 3 Aug 87 pp 4, 5
For a missile that was "highly evaluated" by the U.S., I find it to be particularly elusive.
Has anyone seen a picture of it? Could anyone share more data about its career? Thanks!

In his excellent Royal Navy Destroyers and Frigates, Norman Friedman gives details of original plans for fitting Excocets to the Royal Navy surface fleet.
Shipbucket enthusiasts may already have seen this, but if not it may be of interest.
In 1969 the RN decided to buy 300 Exocets to fit 37...
While searching for information about the ASTROS artillery system, I came across a series of articles on Brazil's rocket and missile programs on the Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora website (http://www.ecsbdefesa.com.br/defesa/). There's quite a bit of info on a series of obscure projects...

When the UK aircraft carrier CVA 01 was cancelled in 1966 one of
the ways of replacing its capabilities was to be the development of
long range surface to surface missiles for both anti-ship and shore
bombardment roles. Indeed even before the cancellation of CVA 01
a study had been done on a...
