Air Force fires Atlas missile in historic first
The Atlas intercontinental ballistic missile was launched by Air Force combat troops from Vandenberg California at 10 49 a m PDT and traveled toward the Pacific Ocean near Wake Island. Officials say the test marks a major step in expanding the U S missile arsenal and deterrence though it did not disclose whether the target was hit. Legendary commander General Power hailed the event as historic while cautioning that the program remains under refinement and not emergency ready.
