Aerotech Warthog rocket.			Comments Aerotech rockets are excellent way for model rocketeers to transition to high powered rockets. The Warthog is especially sturdy, although I chose to leave off the little plastic pieces of trim. These just seemed like an unnecessary source of drag. Stylistically the nose cone seems a little long for a military missile. Descriptively, a warthog has a short blunt snout. I'd like to see this model with a Patriot missile proportioned nose cone. Specifications Length: 37"/94 cm Diameter: 2.6"/6.7 cm Nose Cone: 5:1 Ogive Weight (without motor): 14oz/400gms Fins: 4-Clipped delta with double wedge airfoil Stages: 1 Motor Mount: 29mm (includes 24mm adapter) Recovery System: Parachute Product No. 89018 Paint Krylon Primer A ridiculously large assortment of Krylon paints
