I would remove this photo as it can reveal national secrets.
As a simple example you could calculate the thrust, range, and ability to turn just by looking at the section and the size of the fuel injector holes.
There's a public museum in Southern Arizona with this type of missile.
It was part of an arms-reduction treaty with the USSR. Both sides had to leave missiles out for satellites to confirm that they had been deactivated and could preserve a facility as a museum.
That would be where I took this. Great museum. They reeealllly try to hammer home the merits of Mutually Assured Destruction though. It makes sense though, most of the staff there are retired air force who served under SAC
Oh that's fantastic. Just great.
