Abstract:
The Atlas rocket bas been manufactured almost continuously since 1956 by the Convair Division of General Dynamics Corporation in San Diego, California. After serving with the US strategic nuclear arsenal in the early 1960s, obsolete E and F model Atlas missiles were disarmed and placed into storage with the intention of reusing the boosters for future space and ballistic test programmes.
