American intercontinental ballistic missile. US ICBM. 3 stage vehicle. The LGM-30F Minuteman II used the W56 warhead exclusively with either the Mk. 11B or Mk. 11C re-entry vehicle.

AKA: HSM-80B;LGM-30F;Mk. 11B or Mk. 11C;W56;WS 133B. Status: Active. First Launch: 1964-09-24. Last Launch: 2001-07-15. Number: 189 . Payload: 680 kg (1,490 lb). Thrust: 780.00 kN (175,350 lbf). Gross mass: 33,014 kg (72,783 lb). Height: 18.23 m (59.80 ft). Diameter: 1.80 m (5.90 ft). Span: 1.80 m (5.90 ft). Apogee: 1,300 km (800 mi).

The Minuteman II used a new second stage motor, increasing range by 1600 km (1000 miles) compared to the IB model it replaced in production. A new all solid-state guidance system could store eight sets of target coordinates, compared to two for the IB. First test launch was in September 1964, with the first of 500 first missiles becoming operational in August 1965. The Minuteman II deployment brought the force up to its planned 1000-silo level, while replacing the Minuteman IA. Initial reliability problems with the guidance unit were solved. In addition to its nuclear warhead, the Minuteman II was equipped with Tracor Mk.1 decoys to present multiple targets to Soviet anti-ballistic missile systems.

Development Cost $: 1,380.600 million. Recurring Price $: 5.605 million in 1971 dollars. Flyaway Unit Cost 1985$: 1.792 million in 1962 dollars. Maximum range: 12,600 km (7,800 mi). Number Standard Warheads: 1. Standard RV: Mk. 11B or Mk. 11C. Standard warhead: W56. Warhead yield: 1,200 KT. CEP: 0.56 km (0.34 mi). Boost Propulsion: Solid rocket. Maximum speed: 29,030 kph (18,030 mph). Initial Operational Capability: 1966. Total Number Built: 668. Total Development Built: 48. Total Production Built: 620.

Boeing SM-80-LGM-30 Minuteman 2

The LGM-30F Minuteman II featured many improvements. It had a completely new Aerojet General SR19-AJ-1 second stage motor, which increased range by about 1600 km (1000 miles). Its guidance unit used solid-state circuitry, and could store up to eight sets of target coordinates. The first LGM-30F launch occurred in September 1964, and the first missiles became operational in August 1965. Eventually 500 LGM-30Fs were placed in silos, some replacing older LGM-30A-B missiles. The Minuteman II initially experienced a lot of reliability problems with its new guidance unit, because soild-state electronics were very new at the time, but the problems were eventually solved. The LGM-30F was the first U.S. ICBM to use decoys (Tracor Mk.1) in its warhead section. The LGM-30F was also the missile selected for the ultimate ERCS (Emergency Rocket Communication System), and it replaced the interim MER-6A Blue Scout Junior rockets in this role in October 1967.
