This is a 1:24 scale model of the Corporal, a U.S. Army surface-to-surface missile. It had a range of approximately 85 miles and carried a nuclear warhead. It was deployed with the U.S. Army and British Army in Western Europe from 1954 to 1966. The Army Ballistic Missile Agency built this model and donated it to NASM in 1961.
