Atlas ICBM shows poor accuracy to hit distant targets
Reports from Washington reveal the Atlas intercontinental ballistic missile failed to launch successfully and would likely miss targets by at least 100 miles, far from the ten-mile accuracy the Defense Department seeks for warhead delivery. Officials note no terminal guidance exists for such speeds, while other missiles show greater precision.
