Orange Nell

From British Secret Projects, Hypersonics, Ramjets and Missiles

‘Orange Nell – the twin-rail launcher would replace a 5″ gun turret and would include a magazine with forty missiles stacked vertically in two concentric rings’

Range 1.1miles to 5.7 miles

Size approx 8-9ft long, body diameter about 1ft or 2ft across the four wrap around boosters (based on the scale with the diagram in BSP).

Were the wrap around boosters fitted prior to launch or already fitted?

The previous Popsey missile had tandem boosters, BSP doesn’t seem to mention any stability problems so why the change to wrap around?
