Rocketarium SkyFlash Rocket

This is a flying, semi-scale, model of a semi-active radar homing air-to-air missile.  The medium-range SkyFlash missile was deployed in a wide variety of configurations.  The SkyFlash missile with the markings as shown here represents the version used in drills.

Due to the large forward fins, the SkyFlash model rocket is best flown when there's little to no wind.  All markings are provided on a self-adhesive decal sheet.
