Description

Figure shows the appearance and dimensions of the rocket. The rocket contains 4.50 kilograms (9.92 pounds) of RDX, wax, and aluminum (A-1X-2). It is believed to contain two base-detonating fuzes. The rocket has a tandem warhead. The forward warhead is a penetration warhead and the rear warhead appears to be a blast fragmentation warhead. Each warhead contains its own fuze located in the rear. The motor section is shown in the unfired condition with a cover concealing what is believed to be four folding fins similar to those found on earlier versions of the U.S. 2.75" rocket.

The rocket is gray with black markings.
