PROBING THE DEPTHS: PROJECT SWORD PF3 FAMILY TREE

 My best guess as to the steps that were taken before Project SWORD's plastic friction Probe Force 3 appeared in 1967.

(* The Green Monster was a real rocket car]


Have you got anything like this?

  1. Although some of those designs are fairly generic, I can see the progression of them into the final product. The Midori Super Arrow Orbital Rocket, a 1966 model kit, also had quite similar lines. SFZ
