28. J-9, 20 Dec 60, Response Mode 4, Flight Phase 2: No Stage-Ilignition due to failure of gas generator to start. 29. J-10, 20 Jan 61, Response Mode 4, Flight Phase 2: No- Stage-II operation due to erroneous signal that appeared at umbilical disconnect. Impact some 420 miles downrange. 32. J-12, 3 Mar 61, Response Mode 4, Flight Phase 2: Stage-II terminated prematurely after 54-second burn, apparently due to failure of pump drive assembly. Impact was 730 miles downrange. 34. J-15, 31 Mar 61, Response Mode 4, Flight Phase 1: Booster shut down prematurely at 7 4 seconds. Missile subsequently tumbled and broke up. 37. M-1, 24 Jun 61, Response Mode 4T, Flight Phase 2: Stage II engine shut down prematurely after 12 seconds of operation due to loss of Stage II hydraulic power. Loss of hydraulic power occurred during Stage I flight, so failure led to loss of control of sustainer and vernier actuators, producing excessive missile motion and tumbling. 42. M-3, 7 Sep 61, Response Mode 5, Flight Phase 2: A transient in guidance computer at 218.35 seconds (SECO at 297.7 seconds) caused impact 20 miles short and 2.8 miles left of target. 45.

N-1, 7 Jun 62, Response Mode 4, Flight Phase 2: Sustainer engine performance was subnormal due to reduced oxidizer flow through the gas generator. RSO terminated flight after a prolonged sustainer bum. Impact only 1100 miles downrange. 58.
