Tomahawk

Tomahawk Sandia
Tomahawk Orion

American sounding rocket. Test and sounding vehicles developed by Sandia using the TE-416 Tomahawk motor.

AKA: Tomahawk Sandia;UGM-109. Status: Retired 1995. First Launch: 1963-06-12. Last Launch: 1967-12-06. Number: 25 . Payload: 20 kg (44 lb). Thrust: 43.80 kN (9,847 lbf). Gross mass: 266 kg (586 lb). Height: 5.31 m (17.42 ft). Diameter: 0.23 m (0.75 ft). Span: 0.93 m (3.05 ft). Apogee: 60 km (37 mi).

The TE-416 motor was developed by Thiokol for Sandia, a major contractor to the Atomic Energy Agency. The rocket was used in support of nuclear tests. NASA intended to use the rocket for a series of launches to study the sun during the International Quiet Sun Year (IQSY). However after four tests NASA decided not to use the rocket. A few years later NASA did a single shot of their 'D-Region Tomahawk' but again did not use it further. The Tomahawk however was used in large numbers by NASA and Sandia as the upper stage on a variety of sounding rockets.

Payload: 20 kg (44 lb) to a 60 km altitude.
