The USAF mobile Ground Launched Cruise Missile was developed as a counter to the mobile medium- and intermediate- range ballistic nuclear missiles deployed by the Soviet Union in Eastern Bloc European countries. The USAF GLCM and the US Army's Pershing II were the incentives that fostered Soviet willingness to sign the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF treaty), and reduced the threat of nuclear wars in Europe. It was deployed during 1983 and fully removed from service by 1991. I served as an assistant flight chief assigned to the 487th Tactical Missile Wing at Comiso Air Station, Sicily.

The Launch Control Center (LCC) was man armored trailer manned by two launch control officers contained in the sheltered trailer box. The aft box housed air handling and chemical and biological filters. When the LCC is connected to Transporter-Erector Launcher (TEL) and received valid and verified launch orders, executed launch sequence procedures for the GLCM cruise missiles housed inside the TEL. The LCC had several antenna systems for communication with each other and to USAF HQ. There are 3 whip type antennas (see included diagram) that are too thin to print. You can use thin wire for these. Cut them to approximately 1/3 the shelter box (minus the aft equipment box. Heat up the end of the wire, and press into each of the small cubes on three top corners of the LCC Shelter. I have provided a small, vertical holes in the top of each of these cubes to assist you.

The legs were used to support an LCC that is disconnected from the prime mover. I have included replaceable legs- Leg Up when the LCC is joined to the prime mover, and Leg Down when the TEL is disconnected from the prime mover (or you just want more model stability).

For the LCC model, you will need to print the following:
1 x LCC 3D Ladder
2 x LCC 3D Leg Down
2 x LCC 3D Leg Up
1 x LCC 3D UHF Antenna
1 x LCC 3D UHF Mast
1 x LCC 3D UHF Support
1 x LCC 3D
4 x Trailer Wheel

The models are real world size to make it easier to print to a desired scale.
