A great CGI video produced by Northrop Grumman, depicting the launch of a Minuteman III missile and the delivery of a nuclear warhead.

This is a short video of a Minuteman III missile, being launched at Vandenberg AFB in California.

A quick 16 second video of a Peacekeeper being cold launched out of its Launch Facility. What makes this video exceptional is the sound of the missile being shot up and out of the Launch Facility with highly compressed gas. The missile reaches approximately 100 feet in altitude, when the first stage booster kicks in.

This is a 14 minute, 18 second video of the Small ICBM Hardened Mobile Launcher being field tested for handling, maneuverability, and overall performance.

A special ceremony was held at the site of the Alpha 6 Launch Facility, assigned to Malmstrom Air Force Base. This Minuteman Launch Facility was the first to be placed on strategic alert at the beginning of the Cuban Missile Crisis.

This is close to an 8 minute video of Al Roker visiting Malmstrom Air Force Base, in Great Falls, Montana.

This is a little over 7 minute video, with Al Roker getting unprecedented access to the Alpha 01, Ace In The Hole, Missile Alert Facility (LCF) at Malmstrom AFB, in Great Falls, Montana.

This is a 8 minute 32 second video that discusses the development of the Intercontinental Ballistic Missile as a part of General Bernard Schriever who was the head of the development and deployment team for the ballistic missile.

This 49 minute video is a interview with retired General Bernard Schriever that was produced by C-Span, and was recorded on November 4, 1992. General Schriever discusses his time in the Air Force and working on the ICBM program.

This 59 minute 15 second video is of an interview with author Neil Sheehan, who wrote the book, "A Fiery Peace In A Cold War." This book is on the nuclear arms race, told through the life of General Bernard Schriever, who led the US military in researching and developing the ICBM and other missiles.

This is a 1 minute 42 second video showing the launch of a target missile being launched in Alaska, and a GMD Interceptor missile being launched from Vandenberg AFB, to intercept the target missile. There is also a clip of the intercept scene, when the Interceptor missile eliminates the target missile.

This is a 2 minute 30 second video showing a great aerial view of a target missile being launched in Alaska, and a GMD Interceptor missile being launched from Vandenberg AFB, to intercept the target missile.

There is also a clip of the intercept scene, when the Interceptor missile eliminates the target missile.

This video is a CGI depiction of how the Kill Vehicle on the Interceptor missiles would operate. Though the missiles being used in this video belong to the Navy, the premise of how a EKV is launched and how it eliminates the enemy missile, is the same.

This video is another CGI depiction of how the Kill Vehicle on the Interceptor missiles would operate. This video is similar to the one above, depicting how an IRBM, ICBM and MRBM would be intercepted and eliminated by a Kinetic Energy Interceptor.
