It was to replace unguided bombs between 1,000 lb and 10,000 lb, or could be equipped with a nuclear warhead. Ordered under OR.1059 it was cancelled in June 1954 after £3.1 million had been spent on its development because it was too heavy. However the casing design was modified and used in the Green Cheese air to surface missile.
