The experimental effort of using a rocket sled to propel full-scale reentry vehicles and interceptor missiles through simulated nuclear blast environments is summarized in this report. A description of the sled design, reentry vehicle sled separation technique, vibration levels, and results of seven successful sled tests are included. (Author)
