Image Not Available for Regulus II – Three of the spike-nosed new missiles are lined up as they come off the assembly line. The Regulus II is the second in a series of weapons for use on ships, submarines and at shore bases. In a recent successful launching, the missile was lifted by a two-ton auxiliary rocket. It flew 1,000 miles at a speed of more than 1,300 miles an hour. The 57-foot, eleven-ton pilotless aircraft can carry an atomic warhead to a pre-selected target. The Regulus II is almost twice the size of its predecessor, Regulus I, and is said to travel faster and to higher altitudes.

Image Not Available for The first jet transport plane produced in the United States nears completion at Boeing Aircraft plant in Renton, Washington State. The big four-jet 190,000-pound aircraft will be the test model for demonstration to commercial and military buyers. It represents an investment of $15,000,000 by the Boeing Corporation. The "transport of the future" is 128 feet long with a wing-spread of 130 feet. A cruising speed of 550 miles-per-hour will permit regular transcontinental (New York to West Coast) flights in less than five hours and trans-Atlantic (New York to London) flights in less than seven hours. Passenger load in high speed comfort will vary from 80 to 150 depending on distances and other operational requirements.
