| Description: | "The newest look in America's defense and space program accessories; a muzzle-loading rocket which borrows from the idea of muzzle-loaded Revolutionary War muskets. It reaches 1300 miles an hour in three seconds, has a re-usable motor, and assembles in the field in an hour. MSs - Lockheed employees & USAF airmen installing rocket muzzle in hangar. TLS -Technicians preparing site for rocket launch. Rear view MS - Technician wearing communications headset. Rear view MS - Two USAF airmen manning control board. Panning LSs - Vertical rocket launch with muzzle loader. Great camera view looking back from speeding rocket (severe vibrating, but interesting shot nonetheless). | |
