Hello All,

Below are several links to photographs and information on the AGM-12C Bullpup B air-to-surface missile (distinctively different in appearance and size from other Bullpup versions), which was designed to carry a 1,000 pound semi-armor-piercing warhead to a greater range (10 miles) than the 7-mile range of other Bullpup versions. A variant of the AGM-12C fitted with a cluster bomb warhead (for use against anti-aircraft sites) was called the AGM-12E. Also, there were at least two variations in the planform of its distinctive, long-chord rear wings, which resembled the fins of the Centuri and Estes Viking model rocket kits. Here are the links:

The rear wings on this missile, however, have slightly clipped tips. Can any Bullpup experts [I am not one] positively identify which variant this missile is?)
