AF Launches Snark in East Coast Test

CAPE CANAVERAL Fla AP another Snark intercontinental guided missile streaked over the Atlantic from the Air Force Missile Test Center Wednesday night. The 68 foot long Snark is the nation s most accurate long range weapon but it moves about 600 mph. The missile poured out a yellow flame as it blasted away from Cape tips aided by twin solid fuel boosters. The Pratt Whitney jet engine took over and the Northrop missile traced a horizontal path between clouds before vanishing from sight. Air Force confirmed the launch as another test in its missile research and development program. About six Snarks have been fired from the center and the planned range was not announced. The Snark has traveled over 5 000 miles down the Atlantic test range on previous tests. The red coated missile uses a self contained inertial guidance system to reach a straight line or zig zag course.
