SkyboItFaiIure
Fails 10 Daunt
AFDeVeIopers

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla,
April 20 (AP).-Despite a sec
ond-stage nalfunction, the Air
Force says it Is satisfied with
the initial flight performance
of the Nations first air
launched bailistic missile, the
Skybolt.
A B-52 bomber unleashed the
first Skybolt from beneath its
wing yesterday at an attitude of
more than five miles Just off
the tip Of Cape Canaveral.
The solid fuel weapon
dropped some 500 feet and the
first stage ignited to propel the
rocket on an upward trajectory
designed to reach 300 miles be-
fore the warhead plummeted
back inJo the ocean.
But trouble in the second
stage terminated the flight
swiftly. Informed sources said
the upper stage failed to ignite.
An Air Force spokesman,
asked about this, replied:
I'VE know the second stage
separated, but we don't know
now-and may not know for
several days-whether it ig-
nited. If it did ignite, it was
only briefly. Telemetry reports
will tell if it did.
I'VE do know that we didn't
get all that we would have liked
out of the flight, but we con-
slider it one heck of a success
to gain so much on a maiden
test"
The Air Force; Douglas Air
craft. the prime contractor. and
Aerojet-General, the propulsion
manager, have considerable
time to develop the Skybolt.
The missile is not scheduled to
be operational until late 1854.
Officials said they can count
these dividends from the first
flight: Successful drop, first
stage ignition and trajectory.
Actually, this is more than
we could hope for on the initial
flight of such a complex sys-
tem." commented an Air Force
spokesman. The radio tape
will help pinpoint the trouble
and enable us to correct it be-
fore the next flight"
Once operational, Skybolt will
be the most mobile missile in
the free world arsenal. The
United States plans to mount
four of the missiles on each Of
300 B-52 stratofortress bombers,
and Great Britain will use 1t
on the Vulcan Mark II bomber. |
Cruising more than 1000
miles from enemy territory,
the B-52 and Vulcan will be
able to blast away at strategic |
targets with the 9,500-mile-an-
hour Skybolts. The planes then
could return to base or could
follow the path cleared by the
missiles and unload conven-
tional nuclear bombs.
