Вот как Чарли Стросс описывает нашу ракету Pluto (1957г)
Стросс, конечно, краснобай. Но на головы россиян уже капает, какая-то радиоактивная дрянь из неосовкового Буревестника.Travelling at Mach 3 the XK-PLUTO will overfly enemy territory, dropping megaton-range bombs until, its payload exhausted, it seeks out and circles a final enemy. Once over the target it will eject its reactor core and rain molten plutonium on the heads of the enemy. XK-PLUTO is a total weapon: every aspect of its design, from the shockwave it creates as it hurtles along at treetop height to the structure of its atomic reactor, is designed to inflict damage.''
