Fred Epler sounds like an amazing person whom I wish I'd known. It was still very awesome when I was there, but abandoned places are always more interesting when artifacts are still lying around. Though the SM-68A was operational for only three years, it spawned numerous follow-on models that were a part of the U.S. arsenal and space launch capability. According to Windermere real estate agent Kelvin Wallin, 18 Titan 1 missile sites were built during the years 1959-1962 between Colorado and Washington state. . This silo was once filled with many levels of equipment to service, fuel and guide the missile.

"[4] Titan I's second-stage engines were reliable enough to be ignited at altitude, after separation from the first stage booster. The last time I was in the the bars were not in place. You may have noticed the giant tank sitting aboveground: that used to be where the "entrance pit" is, decades ago. [52] The decision was made to deploy Titan squadrons in a "hardened" 3 X 3 (three sites with one control center and three silos each) to reduce the number of guidance systems required. The succeeding LGM-25C Titan II served in the U.S. nuclear deterrent until 1987 and had increased capacity and range in addition to the different propellants. Stumpf, David K., Titan II, p 22-26, The University of Arkansas Press, Fayetteville, Arkansas, 2000. Searched found a website. Kaplan, Albert B. and Keyes, Lt. [25], The next launch at the end of the month (Missile J-4) suffered premature first stage shutdown and landed far short of its planned impact point.

Often quite a bit of work. The second attempt at a Lot C Titan failed at T+52 seconds when the guidance compartment collapsed, causing the RVX-3 reentry vehicle to separate. Each squadron was deployed in a 3x3 configuration, which meant each squadron controlled a total of nine missiles divided among three launch sites, with the six operational units spread across the western United States in five states: Colorado (with two squadrons, both east of Denver), Idaho, California, Washington, and South Dakota. But before you let that price scare you off, listen to what you get; The Titan 1C facility was built in the early 1960s at a cost of $170,000,000 (1960's dollars). 21M-HGM25A-1-1 Technical Manual Operation and Organizational Maintenance HGM-25A Missile Weapon System, United States Air Force, 1964, Pg 1-9, United States Air Force, The T.O.

[51] In mid-1958 it was decided that the American Bosh Arma all-inertial guidance system designed for Titan would, because production was insufficient, be assigned to Atlas and the Titan would switch to radio-inertial guidance. The plan was to load the missile with propellant, raise it up to firing position, and then lower it back into the silo. Sheehan, Neil 2009, A Fiery Peace in a Cold War Bernard Schriever and the Ultimate Weapon, New York: Vintage Books, 2009, pp. To get into one of the silos we had to squeeze through a hole into an elevator shaft underwater, which was a tight fit and just about required somebody pulling and pushing you.
