A scientist makes a presentation of Project MX770 showing coverage of model and various phases of missile development from 1946-1951. Development of NATIV (NORTH AMERICAN TEST INSTRUMENTATION VEHICLE) missile is between 1946-47 while NAVAHO is developed between 1948-49.The presentation shows the pulling of test vehicle under launching tower and its vertical position. A technician ties guide wires near the top of the missile.The missile is fired. Graphical presentation shows the parabolic pathway of missile showing altitude of 400mt and speed of mach8 (2722.32m/s). The firing range of Navaho is 3000mt from surface to surface.The missile uses Ramjet engines. Models of three missiles are also shown.
Presentation of missile program Project MX770 is shown. Technicians assemble missile and check RTV-A-5 (X-10) for flight. Animation of RTV-A-5 shows various compartments of the missile. Integral rocket booster and two fin mounted ramjets(engine) are present. Fuel tank is present over the front wheel of RTV-A-5. Missile engine is shown and missile is placed in the left wing of the RTV-A-5.
Animation of radar guidance to RTV-A-5 from a radar-disc mounted van under missile project MX770 is given. Large test equipment of the guidance system are seen. Auto-navigator present in the anterior part of the missile is shown in the animation. Large van trailers are prepared to install Telemetering equipment present in the laboratory. Two technicians telecommunicate with each other.
Testing of the Celestia Autonavigator is presented under the Missile Project MX770. Technician makes gyro test of Celestial Autonavigator in laboratory. ADS C-47, a flying test laboratory is in flight. Animation shows assembly of a auto-navigator step by step. A graph plot of error against time shows exponential error for pure gyro test while continuous fluctuating error for star checked test.Technician checks auto-navigator in the laboratory.
