Space Minnow

Very cool looking design. Could make a great scale or semi-scale rocket.

Blast off: space minnow Indonesia eyes celestial success

Workers snap the miniature rocket's wings into place as Indonesia's little-known space agency readies its latest launch on barren scrubland in East Java.

With a 3,2,1 blast off, the two-metre-long projectile belches a trail of fire and then soars a few hundred metres before crashing in a heap—earning a thumbs up from scientists who declared the test a success.

Launch looks a bit like @lakeroadster ‘s latest project.

Um, if this is for “Celestial” goals, wouldn’t you want to aim it more vertical than horizontal to start with?

Cool... thanks for posting this.

I'm spit-balling here, but I guess NAR and Tripoli aren't part of the codes they are designing / building to?

Looks more like a target drone than a space vehicle. Maybe they are designing a SAM system and need their own drones to test it.

Either way, neat design for a low altitude boost glider.

Looks like something you would find at LDRS

Impressive for a solo HPR modeler.
Not impressive for a government sponsored "space agency".
Not to be Snark-y but the US flew full size nuclear capable cruise missiles in the late 40s/early 50s with 1000 km range.
Here's a Matador

I see what you did, there...

Well, there goes the Safety Code . . . It's 1981, all over . . . The "Outlaws" ride again !

See that little scoop in front of the vertical stab, that is an air intake. I would guess a small turbine in the tail with rocket assist for take off.

Another cool turbine equipped cruise missile design, Regulus II, circa 1956:

Sorry, don't understand the duplicated image. Strange behaviors on this forum, that's for sure...

Same result as the SS Minnow

Hmm . . . "Ginger" or "Mary Ann" ?

Mary Ann - 100% !
