Guardian - Skill Level 2 - Estes Model Rockets

The Guardian rocket simulates a ground-to-air missile. This multi-finned guardian of the sky soars over 700 feet when launched with the standard engines. With its exceptional look and high altitude performance, the Guardian will make a great addition to your rocket collection. Get protected today...get a Guardian for your arsenal!

Protect the airspace around your neighborhood from surprise attacks with the Estes Guardian! This Model Rocket kit was created with a multiple-fin design, representative of the Nike ground to air missiles that were used in our country's defense for years.

Between 1954 and 1974 many USA cities were ringed by Nike missile sites, intended to protect against attack by enemy bombers. The first versions of the missiles were armed with high explosive warheads, so they could bring down the target even with a near miss. The Guardian requires more skill in building and painting.
