Air-to-Air rocket weapon...

Item # 628832 ·
THE NEW YORK TIMES, February 7, 1950

* Mk 4 Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket
* "Mighty Mouse" - United States Navy

Page 14 has a two column heading: "New Air-to-Air Rocket Developed by Navy; Folding Fin Is Used to Help Speed in Combat" with related photo. (see) First report coverage on the introduction of the Mk 4 Folding-Fin Aerial Rocket. I suspect this is one of the few publications to report this particular event as other titles in our inventory do not.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 52 pages, nice condition.
Category: The 20th Century

$45
