Saddam Hussein's "secret weapon" in the Persian Gulf conflict, the Soviet-built Scud missile was no match for the faster, more nimble Patriots.  Designed to carry high explosive, Chemical/Biological,or low yield nuclear warheads, the Scud proved to be less of a threat than was previously feared.  The launchers were often detected and taken out before the missile could even be readied for firing, and if it did get launched, modern computer triangulation ensured the same launcher seldom fired again.  This version, the SS-1c, used improved inertial guidance, and is the Scud version most often exported to Warsaw Pact nations.

Completely redesigned for the 1994 catalog, our lightweight 1/8.37 scale model stands an enormous 52.9" tall and measures more than a foot in circumference!  Even so, the two (or four) "D" motors used to lift this monster will put it nearly out of sight!   Our design calls for a "stage-and-a-half" motor arrangement similar to that of the early Atlas missile.  The result is incredible performance for a rocket this size.  Recovery is by a large 24" parachute, with tumble recovery for the optional plug-on Booster Housing (plans for Booster Housing are included in the Plan-Pak).   Shown here is Iraqi desert camouflage, but also looks great with the original dark green paint job and Soviet markings.
