Yep. They show nearly identical footage a moment later and correctly
identify the Minuteman II.


Then, right at the end of the show, they had footage of a Titan II
taking off.
Editors should know more about their subject.
My all-time favorite in this regard is still the Discovery Wings episode
on the B-17, where we learn that it's armed with ten _50 mm_ machine
guns. How would you like to be in a FW-190 coming into a squadron of
those? On the way home from a mission they could descend to low altitude
and engage in tank busting.
Still if nothing else it did have some interesting footage of Soviet
missiles, including that loopy Scud launcher that rises up to the top of
the submarine's conning tower.
