Description
The Cold War’s most famous cruise missile.

The SM-62 Snark was developed at the dawn of the Cold War in response to the ever-increasing threat of Soviet nuclear weapons. Named after Lewis Carroll’s poem The Hunting of the Snark, it was operated by the U.S. Strategic Air Command from 1958-1961. The SM-62 is also known for being the only intercontinental surface-to-surface cruise missile to be deployed by the U.S. Kit features red plastic molding, a positionable launch ramp with a detailed base, twin booster rockets, two ground crew figures and decals with U.S. Air Force markings.
