1961: A Bullpup (GAM-83B) is test fired from an F-100 Super Sabre flying at supersonic speed. Earlier, the GAM-79 White Lance missile was merged into Bullpup development, and the result was a missile, which was like the U.S. Navy’s ASM-N-7a Bullpup A, with the exception of an improved guidance system. The GAM-83B was a derivative of the GAM-83A with a body section of larger diameter, which could be fitted with a 1-15 kT W-45 nuclear fission warhead.
