The JB-3 Tiamat was subsonic air-to-air missile program that began in January 1944 for the U.S. Army Air Force under project MX-570. Prime contractor was Hughes Aircraft Company Electronics Division which developed the Tiamat with the assistance of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, (NACA). Tiamat was propelled by a rocket motor of a boost-sustain dual-thrust type, providing 7,200 lbf (32 kN) of thrust for 3.5 seconds, followed by 200 lbf (0.89 kN) for 45 seconds of cruising flight at 600 miles per hour (970 km/h). Tiamat used semi-active radar homing radar guidance to intercept the target aircraft, with a proximity fuze to detonate the missile's 100 lb (45 kg) High Explosive warhead when within lethal range of an enemy aircraft. The JB-3 program was quickly reduced in status

  • The JB-3 Tiamat was subsonic air-to-air missile program that began in January 1944 for the U.S. Army Air Force under project MX-570. Prime contractor was Hughes Aircraft Company Electronics Division which developed the Tiamat with the assistance of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, (NACA). Tiamat was propelled by a rocket motor of a boost-sustain dual-thrust type, providing 7,200 lbf (32 kN) of thrust for 3.5 seconds, followed by 200 lbf (0.89 kN) for 45 seconds of cruising flight at 600 miles per hour (970 km/h). Tiamat used semi-active radar homing radar guidance to intercept the target aircraft, with a proximity fuze to detonate the missile's 100 lb (45 kg) High Explosive warhead when within lethal range of an enemy aircraft. The JB-3 program was quickly reduced in status following the end of WWII. Testing by the NACA and US Army Air Force continued into 1946. Though the project was cancelled due to ongoing problems, missiles already under construction were used by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics for research during the next few years. During the program considerable research was conducted including a radical modification to the aerodynamic design testing swept wings. Existing during a period from where anything was tried, to limited development funding, the JB-3 had proven the limits of existing technology as well as providing much experience. With the appearance of more promising missile designs the JB-3 had gone from the cutting edge of technology to obsolete in just a few years time. (en)

Considerato come un veicolo puramente sperimentale, i suoi test di lancio vennero effettuati per diversi anni prima che il progetto venisse chiuso definitivamente. Il progetto Tiamat ebbe inizio nel gennaio 1944 quando venne firmato un contratto tra la Hughes Aircraft e l'USAAF per lo sviluppo di un missile aria-aria sperimentale subsonico a propellente solido. Sviluppato in cooperazione con la National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, il Tiamat era un ampio missile a forma di freccia di lunghezza 4,37 metri e di 270 kg di peso. (it)
