The SM-65C Atlas, or Atlas C was a prototype of the Atlas missile. First flown on 24 December 1958, the Atlas C was the final development version of the Atlas rocket, prior to the operational Atlas D. It was originally planned to be used as the first stage of the Atlas-Able rocket, but following an explosion during a static test on 24 September 1959, this was abandoned in favor of the Atlas D. Atlas C was similar to Atlas B, but had a larger LOX tank and smaller RP-1 tank due to technical changes to the Rocketdyne engines. Improvements in materials and manufacturing processes also resulted in lighter-weight components than the Atlas A and B. Booster burn time was much longer than the A/B series, up to 151 seconds. All launches took place from LC-12 at CCAS.

- Atlas C (oznaczenie SM-65C) – ostatni eksperymentalny wariant pocisku balistycznego serii Atlas. Wykorzystywany w latach 1958–1959. Odbył 6 lotów balistycznych, z czego trzy zakończyły się pełnym sukcesem. Później został użyty jako 1. człon rakiety Atlas C Able, jednak jedyny egzemplarz tej rakiety eksplodował we wrześniu 1959 podczas naziemnych testów statycznych na platformie startowej. Pocisk został wycofany na rzecz pocisku Atlas D, przekonfigurowanego w latach 60. na rakietę nośną. (pl)
