Trumpeter 1/35 Soviet 9P117M1 Launcher w/ R17 9K72 Missile 01019 Plastic Model Kit

The first use of the term Scud was in the NATO name:SS-1b Scud-A, applied to the R-11 ballistic missile. The R-11 used technology gained from the V-2 as well, but was a new design, smaller and differently shaped than the V-2 and R-1 weapons. The R-11 was developed by the:Korolyev OKB^[1]:and entered service in 1957. The most revolutionary innovation in the R-11 was the engine, designed by:A.M. Isaev. Far simpler than the V-2's multi-chamber design, and employing an anti-oscillation baffle to prevent:chugging, it was a forerunner to the larger engines used in Soviet launch vehicles.

Further developed variants were the:SS-1c Scud-B:in 1961 and the:SS-1d Scud-C:in 1965, both of which could carry either a conventional high-explosive, a 5- to 80-kiloton:nuclear, or a:chemical warhead. The:SS-1e Scud-D:variant developed in the 1980s can deliver a terminally guided warhead capable of greater precision.

All models are 11.35:m long (except Scud-A, which is 1:m shorter) and 0.88:m in diameter. The missile reaches a maximum speed of:mach:5.
