Estes Nike-X

During the Cold War, the Nike batteries were the United States' last line of defense against Communist bombers.

Now you can relive the drama of a live-fire exercise with the Nike-X. This single-stage rocket is a scaled-down rendition of the US Army’s 4th generation surface-to-air missile.

Featuring Nike-style design and realistic army markings, this Standard engine (18 mm) powered missile can reach altitudes of 600 feet. Parachute recovery ensures a quick relaunch.
