VTS-6 - 4" Diameter
$ 334.95
The VTS-6 is part of our Missile Collector Series. (This kit is for the advanced builder, over 70 pieces). This kit is now being made in the new XX phenolic airframe.
In 1983 LTV offered the VTS-6 (Vought Target System 6), a derivative of the ALVRJ/STM design, as its entry into the Navy's (Supersonic Low-Altitude Target) competition. The VTS-6 missile was essentially identical to the ALVRJ vehicle except for a slightly longer fuselage to accommodate additional target-specific equipment.
