Popsy (missile)

Popsy was a development concept for a small surface-to-air missile (SAM) intended to protect Royal Navy ships from guided bombs and anti-shipping missiles. It was one of several concepts considered for this role, none of which were built. The project took over the role in the 1950s, and was similarly never built. The role was eventually filled by Seacat, a manually-guided system of otherwise similar performance.
