Minor revisions citations added Mark Lincoln (talk) 23:42, 12 November 2019 (UTC)[edit]

I have added requested citations and deleted the section "Operational Deployment" for two reasons. First I was unable to verify the numbers cited. Second there were no Titan Is deployed in 1961 as the Corps of Engineers Ballistic Missile Construction Office built the bases in 1960-62 and the first Titan I squadron, the 724 SMS di not go on alert until 18 April 1962. (Stumpf,, p 31). There was 1 SM-68 which was launched flown in 1961,SM-2, from VAFB 395A-1 on 23 Sept, 1961 so perhaps that is the source of confusion.The other numbers are credible given the possession of spare missiles by operational squadrons for replacement of missiles requiring maintenance.

Numbers[edit]

The sections HGM-25A Titan I#Flight testing and HGM-25A Titan I#Service history give a different breakdown in the missiles built.

For Test Models, 62 were said to have been built, but the number of XSM-68 is listed as 59.

The article for Titan Launches is even more confusing, in contrast to the cleaner article for Atlas Launches, which gives a different page for each decade.

The Flight testing lists 4 "V" type built and launched, the Launches Page lists only 3 of this type. The Flight Test Lists 7 "M" type Built and launched, the Launches Page lists 11; 8 in 1963; 1 in 1964; 2 in 1965. The Article doesn't break down details between test vairants either, unlike the Atlas page which gives SIGNIFICANT detail between Atlas A, B, C, D and the Mercury-Atlas modifications (each of which was itself almost a custom build job)

I may have to cross-check the astronautix & designation systems sites to see if I can get a better breakdown.2603:7080:CB3F:5032:A9CA:614F:331F:69BA (talk) 23:08, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
