The Lacrosse was designed to have forward controllers guide the Lacrosse to the target. Originally designed for close support the Lacrosse quickly became a general support missile. The Lacrosse had a few names; SSM-N-9 (U.S. Navy), SSM-G-12 (U.S. Army), SSM-A-12 (U.S. Army), M4 (U.S. Army) and finally MGM-18A (U.S. Army). The Lacrosse Missile was only in service between 1959 and 1964 with 1200 being built. The 5th Battalion, 41st Artillery is credited to have received the first Lacrosse missile and a total of eight battalions would have the Lacrosse Missiles of which most were in Europe and one in Korea.\u00c2\u00a0 There were two versions of the Lacrosse; the M387 which has a M44 66 truck (1953-1957) and the M398 M45 6X6 truck (1958-1959). The Lacrosse\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s dimensions were 19 feet long, 20 inches in diameter, 9 feet wing span, 2300 pounds\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 weight, had a range of 11 miles and a speed of Mach .8.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>For the Modeler:<\/strong> This review covers the Lacrosse Missile w\/Carrier Renwal-Revell Scale Model Kit #85-7824 It is 1:32 scale, and a skill level 5.
