Well, I guess the title says it all...

I'm looking for good and detailed site providing some info on full-scale missiles/rockets for possible future down-scale projects. I believe the last I built was an Estes Sidewinder, or Phoenix, about 10 years ago.

I know I stumbled across a site that contained detailed info on nearly every U.S. missile ever produced, but it was a long time ago, and I never added it to my favorites for some reason. Hoping someone can possibly point me in the right direction.

Thanks!
 
Thanks, that's an excellent start.

I'm usually one for a more sleek and lengthy design, but, 'Project Pilot' has an interesting look to me. Maybe I'll look into it as a large cluster project after I browse some more designs a bit.
 
also you can simply do a google search on a particular missile ,I've found most of my of reference photos and data this way
 
OK, I guess there's no value in hoarding these.... :)

In addition to the Yellowjacket site already posted, here's a few choice selections
from my Scale Construction bookmarks folder.

Note, these have various degrees of "good and detailed" information. YMMV.
