Bomarc Intercepts Destroys Another 1000-Mph Missile
Cape Canaveral reports a Bomarc interceptor shot down a target moving at about 1000 mph during a remote controlled test from Kingston New York. The X-10 research vehicle was blasted from the sky in a mock attack, marking a high achievement for SAGE guided interception. The Air Force noted the Bomarc could be fitted with a nuclear warhead and that the mission demonstrated the system's effectiveness, though it did not confirm capabilities against ballistic missiles.
