Project Emily was the name of the program that deployed Thor missiles to the United Kingdom. To meet the rapid deployment timeline, many aspects of the program were taken from the Atlas program. The Mark 2 reentry vehicle with W-49 warhead, the Rocketdyne engine, and the all-inertial guidance system were used to meet the planned initial operating capability date in December 1959. 31 Each HGM-25A Titan I complex contained three missile launchers, as shown here, which were laced together by an intricate network of steel tunnels.
