Bomarc A Interceptor Tests Target Shifting Missile Becomes Action
At Eglin AFB Florida a Bomarc A interceptor shifted to a second higher speed target during a test firing over the Gulf of Mexico. A second Bomarc was launched against a QFSD drone as the Sage system directed maneuvers. Both missiles nearing impact triggered proximity fuses, potentially armed with nuclear warheads. This marked the tenth straight Bomarc A launch in three months. Afterwards Montgomery West Virginia Tech announced a nine week summer term with 39 courses and set registration times and deadlines.
