High altitude view of train passing through a dry area with low mountains in the U.S. The train passes a field. A river beside the track.
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.
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.
Position control system of a missile during flight under missile Project MX770 are explained. An auto pilot controls the flight through Reads Electronic Analog Computer or REAC. Disturbances like wind, dust or engine failure are evaluated from flight equation. The auto pilot control the path of the flight through hydraulic server. Generally the movable control system is mounted on hinges of a plane as shown in the TL-238. The rotatory equator moves the control system and positions the flight correctly.
Schematic diagram of rocket motor power plant of RTV-A-5 and Navaho 2 missiles is given. Various parts of the motor are shown and their position is specified. Animation shows pathway of fuel to combustion chamber. Vertical and horizontal view of rocket in test stand is given. Day and night view of rocket fired from Santa Susanna field are shown.
Vertical view of operation stand is shown. A gantry crane transfers rocket from operation stand to (73000 lb thrust) static test stand. Technicians control rocket through automatic sequencing and firing panel from the control block house. As the rocket is fired, thrust impact and smoke are seen. Technicians are visualizing and controlling the rocket . A diagram of rocket motor and animation of fuel path is also given.
