Titan Missile Museum

The Titan Missile Museum, also known as Air Force Facility Missile Site 8 or as Titan II ICBM Site 571-7, is a former ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) site located about 40 km (25 mi) south of Tucson, Arizona in the United States. It was constructed in 1963 and deactivated in 1984. The muse

um is run by the nonprofit Arizona Aerospace Foundation and includes an inert Titan II missile in the silo, as well as the original launch facilities. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1994. It is one of only two Titan II complexes to survive from the late Cold War period, the other being 571-3. It remains as the only location in the country where visitors can view an entirely preserved ICBM.
