Project Atlas A ICBM: America's First

Time is limited, so for now I'll just keep contributing to the community.

Here's a quick fixed texture:

It looks like this:

Looks ok to me for now !

 

[MJR]

yay!

There is a new texture update available for download. Just download the Atlas A and the textures will be there. Thank you 4throck for making the textures and helping out.

 

[Star Voyager]

Looks very nice! Great job!

 

[MJR]

Now we got three more left. The C, D , and E.

 

[Star Voyager]

Almost there...by the way, are we going to start Atlas C tomorrow?

 

[MJR]

I guess we can. What else programs are there? Thor, SNARK, this one, and?

 

[Star Voyager]

Scout, Trident, Polaris, Jupiter. There are also alternate history spacecraft, too.

 

[MJR]

It will probably take like a year to make all that. Oh well, I got time as long as I live.

 

[Star Voyager]

These are only suggestions and ideas, but if you want to do them, I can provide info. I thought we could transfer out of launchers into spacecraft.

 

[MJR]

We can do that after the Atlas series. What spacecraft you have in mind?

 

[Star Voyager]

I thought we could do Gemini Paraglider.

 

[MJR]

Give me pictures and I'll take a look.

I hope these help!

Trident D5?

Didn't do much work on it since 2004, so you can consider the project practically dead, but the mesh files are still around somewhere here. The last work I remember was fixing the bus stage, third stage and the payload fairing, as I had done this part wrong. Didn't know about the through-the-deck installation of the third stage then.

 

[Star Voyager]

Interesting! I hope you can finish it.

Since you're intrested in building animated bases to go with launchers, you might want to check out any info you can find on the BOMARC and Super-BOMARK. It was designed to be part of our early missile defence and bomber interceptor plan back in the 50s and 60s.

I've seen that before. I think the have a model of it out at LC-5/6.
