    The gentleman's name was Mark Hamilton and it was a 200+% upscale of the Currell paper V-2. Images can be seen here..

    V-2s usually require weight in the nose. Mine had weight but apparently not enough... :-(


    Some clever person modified a big daddy to be a nice looking V-2 by simply using a second big daddy nosecone for the boattail
