| - C-41 was a two-stage Italian-built rocket, 75 kg (165 lb) in weight, part of a program to develop probe carrying rockets to study outer atmosphere. It was first launched on July 9, 1960, from the Salto di Quirra range. The project was managed by Lt.Col. Metallo (DGAM—Direzione Generali Armi e Munizioni) and Engineer Angeloni (SISPRE—Societa Italiana Sviluppo Propulsione a Reazione (Italian Society of Studies on Jet Propulsion)). To cut costs the C-41 recycled parts of existing weaponry. The first stage was powered by a cluster of four jets featuring interconnected combustion chambers. The payload carrying second stage was powered by a single engine of the same type. On the whole six C-41 were launched successfully. Successive development of probe carrying rockets was the task of the newly formed Space Research Committee within the CNR (Italian National Research Institution). The committee's president was the founder of Italian astronautics, Luigi Broglio. (en)
- Il C-41 è un razzo italiano bistadio, del peso di 75 chili, realizzato nell'ambito di un programma per la costruzione di razzi sonda per ricerche nell'alta atmosfera, il cui primo lancio fu effettuato il 9 luglio 1960 dal poligono di Salto di Quirra. A capo del programma il tenente colonnello ruolo servizi Gelsomino Metallo della DGAM e l'ingegner Antonio Angeloni della società Sispre. Per contenere i costi, il razzo fu realizzato con materiali già disponibili e motori progettati per uso bellico. Il primo stadio era composto da quattro motori a propellente solido con camere di combustione intercomunicanti, mentre il secondo stadio consisteva in un solo motore dello stesso tipo, che trasportava l'ogiva con il carico utile. Complessivamente nel 1960 ne furono lanciati sei esemplari, con esiti soddisfacenti. Le attività successive per lo sviluppo di razzi sonda vennero incorporate nel programma della neo-costituita Commissione per la Ricerca Spaziale del CNR, presieduta da Luigi Broglio, padre dell'astronautica italiana.
