AGM-62 Walleye 9x6 - a photo on Flickriver

            AGM-62  Walleye

The WALLEYE I and II, Air-to Ground Missiles (agm), Developed by Martin Marrietta Corporation's Orlando Division in the early 1960s, were unpowered glide bombs with nose mounted television cameras. The bombs were used on the Air Force's F-4 and the U..Navy's A4 and A-7 aircraft during the Vietnam war. The pilot would align the bomb with its target using a TV display in the cockpit. Once the bomb was locked on its target the pilot would launch the bomb and then he could either leave the area or launch another missile. During its gliding descent the WALLEYE could be controlled either by the pilot or by a pilot in a training aircraft. The pilot would monitor and update the bomb's aim point through a data link. The WALLEYE II was a larger version of the WALLEYE I with an extended range.
