The following photos were taken primarily to document the style of the stenciled lettering on the Nike M5E1 motor. Some fin detail photos are also included. Note the extra metal band at the top of the Nike’s forward flange (probably not part of any flight vehicle). The screws on the nozzle shroud may or may not be standard. The shroud and fins also seem to be oriented unusually relative to the screws of the interstage adapter, indicated also by unused mounting holes in the shroud.
