AGM-28 (GAM-77A) Hound Dog (S/N 62-0003), an early cruise missile.
This 'Cold War' 2.1Mach nuclear weapon was deployed for about a decade and a half.
At its height there were 593 of these in active service in 1963-64.
The Hound Dog was removed from alert deployment in 1975. They were retained for two years more before their warheads were decommissioned and the airframes scrapped. Nearly 30 of fuselages remain mainly as museum pieces.
