suit good "even in outer space"
The Air Force had learned lesson
in the art of publicity.
The Army, perhaps not wanting
to be overlooked when ideas about
rocket-age arsenalS were being cir
culated, came up with summary
of its program in the guided mis-
sile field. Through several hundred
words the Army went in for some
representation of technical facts
about rocket shooting, captioned
the release with the declaration
that "Army's new guided missiles
now rolloff assembly lines" But
it didn't say what the missiles are
or how many have rolled off. With
the background presented, the
Army got to the point, announc-
ing:
"The Army now has weapons
that aim themselves after the
trigger is pulled--and it is almost
impossible for them to miss tar
get. -. Fantastic though it may
seem, one of the Army's surface
to-air missiles. carries a guild
ance system designed to out-ma-
neuver and. hit enemy aircraft
The enemy plane, said the Army,
may 'dive, climb, bank, side-slip
or turn tail--but the Army's new
weapons still will knock them out
of the skies"
The Army's account came out
late in the day. Presumably there
wasn't time left for the Navy or
Air Force to get out reports on
their fantastic robot weapons.
