Air Force Tests The Goose" Missile

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla, R- The super secret Goose - uniden- tified officially n streaked across the Atlantic today after launching from the missile test center here.
 The Air, Force confirmed mis- sile had been fired from the Cape, but as usual declined to comment on details.
 The Goose flies at supersonic speeds, upwards of 1000 m.p.h. It has the primary function of act ing as a decoy to confuse enemy radar. This permits an attacking force to sweep in on enemy tar gets with a minimum of oppo- sition.
 Launching of the porpoise-like missile was visible from the beaches. As in the case of pre- vious Goose launchings, two jet chase planes streaked after the surface-to-surface missile follow ing takeoff to observe it's progress.
 The Goose is powered by solid fuel booster rocket for takeoff and 2,0O0-pound thrust turbojet en- zine for sustained flight. Devel oped- and produced by Fairchild Aircraft, the Goose reportedly has a fiber and glass body that makes it immune to radar and other types of early warning sys- tenS.
