Crossbow

     This air-to-surface missile was designed to home in on ground targets such as anti-aircraft batteries which would be using radar. The missile was supposed to follow the radar beam to its source and destroy it. Its stubby wings and turbo-jet engine gave it a relatively long range for its time. U.S. Air Force
