This website is dedicated to all those who serve, especially those who serve aboard our nation's submarines.
It is also dedicated to those brave and steadfast men, both at Chance-Vought Aircraft and within the U.S. Navy, who designed, built, tested, and deployed with the world's first sea-based deterrent weapon, the Regulus cruise missile. Working in obscurity, these people helped construct a defensive shield for the United States whose legacy remains with us today.
Before the Tomahawk cruise missile, before the mighty Trident and Polaris fleet ballistic missile submarines, the Regulus-equipped submarines were the United States' shield in the Pacific. During some of the most difficult moments in the Cold War, they kept America safe.
Thank you one and all for your magnificent service to our nation.
This rare color footage of the USS Cusk launching the Navy's version of the Nazi V-1 "Buzz Bomb" appears on the "Regulus: The First Nuclear Missile Submarines" DVD.
