EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of launch for a salvo of Raytheon-Northrop surface-to-air guided missiles, in June 1957. The image showcases the raw power and technological innovation of the era, as the missiles leave their launcher, ready to defend against aerial threats. The sleek design of the missiles, with their pointed noses and finned bodies, contrasts starkly with the rugged terrain and industrial backdrop of the launch site. The presence of multiple missiles in the air, each leaving their individual trails of smoke, underscores the destructive potential of this advanced military technology. The photograph also highlights the intricate mechanics of the launcher system, with its complex network of wires, pipes, and hydraulic components, all working in perfect harmony to propel the missiles into the sky. This powerful and evocative image offers a glimpse into the past, when the race for air superiority was at its height, and the world was on the cusp of a new era in military technology.
