The Yellow Sun Mk.2 warhead was also used as a warhead for the British Blue Steel missile, and after several modifications, it would have been used for the canceled Anglo-American Skybolt missile. Red Snow warhead was developed when the adoption of Granite warhead, tested in the Grapple test of 1957, was rejected.
