That sounds like another interesting topic. I am sure we would get plenty of VERY interesting entries.

So you worked on HARM? Interesting. Electronics?

I worked on some projects that I knew only by their code names. The ones I know for sure were the SA-3 (low altitude), and the SA-7 shoulder launched one. On that last one we (our design leader) figured out the way to counter the flares. For a while, anyway.

The SA-3 was all analogue tube computers. Tube op-amps, that sort of things. I presume it was later redesigned to be all solid state.
