About: SAM-A-1 GAPA

An Entity of Type: weapon, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Boeing's Ground-to-Air Pilotless Aircraft (GAPA) was a short-range anti-aircraft missile (SAM) developed in the late 1940s by the US Army Air Force, and then the US Air Force after 1948. It was given the reference number SAM-A-1, the first Surface-to-Air Missile (SAM) in the 1947 tri-service designation system. By 1950 over 100 test rockets had been launched using a variety of configurations and power plants, with one launch in 1949 setting the altitude record for a ramjet powered vehicle at 59,000 ft (18,000 m).

  • Boeing's Ground-to-Air Pilotless Aircraft (GAPA) was a short-range anti-aircraft missile (SAM) developed in the late 1940s by the US Army Air Force, and then the US Air Force after 1948. It was given the reference number SAM-A-1, the first Surface-to-Air Missile (SAM) in the 1947 tri-service designation system. By 1950 over 100 test rockets had been launched using a variety of configurations and power plants, with one launch in 1949 setting the altitude record for a ramjet powered vehicle at 59,000 ft (18,000 m). GAPA faced strong competition from the US Army's Nike missile system, and was eventually cancelled in favour of Nike for deployment. The GAPA work was later re-used by the Boeing and Project Wizard team at the Michigan Aeronautical Research Center to develop a much longer-ranged missile, the CIM-10 Bomarc. Bomarc would end up competing with the Army's Hercules missile, and was deployed only in small numbers. (en)
  • Boeing SAM-A-1 GAPA (сокр. англ. Ground-to-Air Pilotless Aircraft — Противовоздушный беспилотный летательный аппарат) — первая программа разработки зенитных ракет ВВС США, разрабатывавшаяся с конца 1945 года. Программа предназначалась в основном для исследования технических особенностей управления сверхзвуковыми противовоздушными ракетами. Разработка велась фирмой Boeing под индексом MX600. В 1949 году программа была закрыта в пользу проекта более совершенной зенитной ракеты CIM-10 Bomarc. (ru)
