Registration + Info:  DB+127 On display at the Luftwaffenmuseum. Attached is the disposable Rocketdyne RS-B 202 rocket accelerator that was used for the Zero-length launch (ZeLL) program tests. Successful ZeLL launches were made by an F-104G of Jagdbombergeschwader 31 (JaboG 31) Boelcke at Edwards AFB in 1963, followed by JaboG 32 at Lechfeld. The idea was to launch an interceptor after airfields were destroyed in a nuclear attack. In 1966 the Luftwaffe decided not to make ZeLL operational.
