I was thinking of something regarding ICBMs. There was a program called MX-774 which was for the ultimate goal of an ICBM with a range of 5000 miles with a 5000 pound payload and a CEP within a mile. While it ultimately became the Atlas, it was all but cancelled in the lead-up to the Korean War, then revived at a later date.
I'm curious how much more quickly it could have been developed if it hadn't been cancelled, and what effect this would have had on bomber development.
