Many More Missiles



















Then I rode back West across the bottom of the WSMR and they had another "Rocket Display"

OK OK... I know they are really "dark" machines but I couldnt help myself, I just love anything that flies :)
And again, there were lots of them that were "Nuclear Capable" as their display plaques put it, and I have to say that most of those ones are pretty uninspiring to look at too... just a long tube with a few fins here and there.

But the ones that I find really interesting and often quite aesthetic are the wingged ones. Often they are not missiles but "drones" used for target practice etc.... but the shapes are amazing!

All fluid lines and curves... beautiful... and a bit menacing too.
