Martin SSM-A-1/B-61/TM-61/MGM-1 Matador

The Matador was the first operational surface-to-surface cruise missile of the U.S. armed forces. Its origins lay in the immediate post-war period, when the Martin Co. was assigned a contract to develop a short-range, subsonic, surface-to-surface missile under USAAF project MX-771. The missile designator SSM-A-1 was assigned, but rarely used.

After the first dummy missiles, made of wood, had been flown to test the zero-length launching system, the first flight of a real missile (designated XSSM-A-1) occured at White Sands Missile Range on 20 January 1949. The YSSM-A-1 were the first missiles to test the guidance system. While the Matador program was almost cancelled in 1949, the start of the Korean caused the USAF to assign it top priority.

In 1951, the USAF assigned aircraft type designations to its guided missiles, to emphasize its view that missiles were nothing else than pilotless aircraft. The Matador was classified as a Pilotless Bomber, and the XSSM-A-1 and YSSM-A-1 became XB-61 and YB-61, respectively.

The B-61A production missiles were slightly larger than the XB/YB-61's, and had a redesigned airframe, including high wings instead of mid-mounted ones. The first Matador squadron was operational at the end of 1953. The B-61A was armed with W-5 nuclear warhead with a maximum yield of about 50 kT. The missile was piloted via a radio link by a ground controller, who tracked the AN/APQ-11 control beacon of the missile via a network of ground-based AN/MSQ-1 radar stations. This guidance system, with its line-of-sight communications, limited the guided range of the missile to about 400 km (250 miles). It was also prone to enemy jamming.

In 1955, the USAF had second thoughts about designating missiles as aircraft, and the B-61A was redesignated as TM-61A Tactical Missile.

The TM-61B was a significantly improved missile. Because of the many changes, it was redesignated as TM-76 Mace, q.v.

The development of the TM-61B/TM-76 took longer than expected, so the USAF started to developed the interim TM-61C in 1954. This was basically a TM-61A equipped with the new Shanicle (Short Range Navigation Vehicle) guidance system. Shanicle used ground-based microwave emitters to generate hyperbolic grids for range and azimuth, which were used by the missile to find its target. With the new system, the guided range could be extended to the maximum possible flight range of the missile, about 1000 km (620 miles). The TM-61C became operational in 1957 and soon replaced all TM-61A's.

In 1963, the TM-61C was redesignated as MGM-1C, although the last Matadors had been removed from active service in 1962. There were no MGM-1A/B designations, because no TM-61A's existed anymore, and the TM-61B/TM-76 Mace was redesignated in the MGM/CGM-13 series. About 1200 missiles of the TM-61A/C versions were produced.

Matador Chronology

1945 October 31 - Launch Vehicle: Matador, Mace, Rascal, Snark, Atlas A, Navaho SSM-A-2.

  • US Strategic Missile Programs Begin Nation: USA. Program: Navaho. Request For Proposals were issued to 17 contractors by the US Army Air Force for studies of a 10-year R&D program of four missile types. The missiles were to be air-, rail-, road-, or ship- transportable, and fit in three range categories: 280 to 800 km; 800 to 2400 km; and 2400 to 8000 km. Minimum speed was 970 kph, requiring turbojet, ramjet, or rocket propulsion.References: 4460.
March to April 1946 - Launch Vehicle: Matador, Mace, Rascal, Snark, Atlas A, Navaho SSM-A-2.
  • Army Air Force awards nine one-year missile study contracts. Nation: USA. Program: Navaho. The MX-770 contract for an 800-km range boost-glide missile derived from the German A9 concept went to North American; this would evolve into the Navaho triple-sonic intercontinental cruise missile. Martin received a contract for development of the MX-771, a subsonic ground-launched cruise missile with an 800-km range; it would evolve into the Matador and Mace missiles. Curtiss-Wright and Republic received contracts for the MX-772 and MX-773 surface-to-surface missiles; they never advanced beyond the initial study stage. Convair received the contract for long-range rocket-powered missiles; this evolved into the Atlas ICBM. Northrtop received the MX-775 contract for a 5000-km range cruise missile; this eventually flew as the Snark. Bell receives a contract to develop the MX-776, a 160-km range rocket-powered supersonic missile to be launched from B-29 bombers. This would evolve into the Rascal. McDonnell received a study contract for the MX-777 air-to-surface missile; this evolved into the anti-submarine 'hydrobomb' concept and was eventually transferred to the Navy. Goodyear received contracts for the MX-778 and MX-779 air-to-surface missiles; these never advanced beyond the preliminary study stage. Concurrently, the USAAF had the GARPA surface-to-air missile project underway, which would evolve into Bomarc; the USA Army the Corporal and Hermes (later Redstone) surface-to-surface missiles and the Nike and Hermes A1 surface-to-air missiles; and the Navy a range of missile technology development projects (Regulus, Bat, Kingfisher, Little Joe, Lark, Bumblebee, Gorgon, Dove).References: 221.
1946 April 22 - Launch Vehicle: Matador.
  • Matador missile project begun. Nation: USA. Glenn L. Martin Co. contracted with the AAF to produce (under Project MX-771) a surface-to-surface guided missile (later designated the Matador). References: 17.
1947 June 1 - Launch Vehicle: Matador, Mace, Regulus 1.
  • MX-771 canceled. Nation: USA. The US Army cancels the Martin MX-771 tactical cruise missile, deciding it will instead procure a land-launched version of the similar Navy Regulus.
1947 September 18 - Launch Vehicle: Atlas A, MX-774, Navaho X-10, Navaho G-26, Navaho G-38, Navaho SSM-A-2, Snark, Matador.
  • U.S. Army Air Corps becomes U.S. Air Force Nation: USA. Program: Navaho. The Air Force was now a separate service from the US Army. The agreement was made that the Air Force would only handle missiles with ranges over 1600 km. So the range requirement for the MX-770 (later the Navaho) was increased to 1600 km, while carrying a 1350-kg payload with an 800 m CEP, and it became an Air Force missile. The 800-km MX-771 (later Matador) became an Army missile. The MX-775 Snark already had an intercontinental range requirement, and became an Air Force missile.References: 4460.
1948 Dec - Launch Site: Holloman. Launch Complex: ZEL. Launch Vehicle: Matador.
  • Test mission Nation: USA. Agency: USAF. Apogee: 12 km (7 mi). References: 1854.
1949 September - Launch Vehicle: Navaho G-26, Navaho G-38, Navaho SSM-A-2, Matador, Rascal, Snark, Corporal.
  • Cold War intensifies - US missile programs given higher priority Nation: USA. Program: Navaho. Reacting to Russia's explosion of an atomic bomb, and the Communist victory in China's civil war, the US military begins increasing funding to the low-priority missile development programs begun in 1946. The Martin MX-771 tactical cruise missile is reinstated; additional funds are plowed into the Rascal and Snark programs; and the Corporal tactical missile is modified to carry a nuclear warhead. The Navaho aerodynamic design is frozen so that fabrication of the XSSM-A-2 flight articles can begin.References: 221.
