Blue Water was a British battlefield nuclear missile of the early 1960s, intended to replace the MGM-5 Corporal, which was becoming obsolete. With roughly the same role and range as Corporal, Blue Water was a far simpler missile that was significantly easier to support in the field. It was seen as a replacement for Corporal both in the UK as well as other NATO operators, notably Germany and possibly Turkey. Blue Water was a code name assigned randomly by the Ministry of Supply based on their Rainbow Code system. It was also known as Red Rose early in development.

has abstract	Blue Water was a British battlefield nuclear missile of the early 1960s, intended to replace the MGM-5 Corporal, which was becoming obsolete. With roughly the same role and range as Corporal, Blue Water was a far simpler missile that was significantly easier to support in the field. It was seen as a replacement for Corporal both in the UK as well as other NATO operators, notably Germany and possibly Turkey. The missile entered testing in 1962 was generally successful, and praised in the industry. However, when Germany purchased the MGM-29 Sergeant instead of Blue Water, and it appeared Turkey would do the same, the UK government decided to cancel its development instead of continuing to develop a missile that would be used only by their own forces. Blue Water was a code name assigned randomly by the Ministry of Supply based on their Rainbow Code system. It was also known as Red Rose early in development. (en) Blue Water era il nome in codice ("" nella terminologia della Forze armate britanniche) per un missile balistico tattico nucleare britannico in sviluppo nei primi anni sessanta. Il Blue Water insieme al Blue Streak, fu pianificato come progetto di sistema d'arma sviluppato in piena autonomia dal Regno Unito, intenzionato a dotarsi durante la guerra fredda di capacità di deterrenza nucleari contro l'allora Unione Sovietica. A differenza del Blue Streak, il Blue Water fu pensato per il ruolo superficie-superficie per utilizzo contro le truppe di terra, quindi un'arma da teatro di guerra nucleare. (it)
