Summary

Description
English: A mobile ICBM carried aboard a tracked armoured vehicle based on the JS-3 Stalin tank in the Red Square May Day Military Parade 1966. This missile was given the NATO Reporting Name of SS-15 Scrooge. The Soviet designation was RT-20.

This photograph of a declassified UK Ministry of Defence dyeline print published in DEFE 44/163 is available to view in The National Archives, Kew, London. The image has been stitched together from two segments and retouched merely to straighten it up and remove the distortion created by the camera lens. Shooting as two segments was necessary because of the very large drawing size and the limited space and facilities available in the National Archives.

The drawing was created by UK Ministry of Defence draughtsman J.J.King based on intelligence, personal observation by Allied embassy military attachés, and photographs taken of equipment seen in a Moscow Red Square May Day Military Parade 1966, and possibly other intelligence sources.
