continued with Missile 4; however, the system was back on the success trail with the firing of Missile 5. This event marked the  recovery of the first full-scale re-entry body. All-in-all, the JUPITER R&D firing program was quite successful. Twenty-two were rated successful, five were partially successful, and only two were failures, for a total of 29 missiles. Also of significant note, 19 of the 29 were tactical prototypes and 16 of this group impacted within a CPE of 0.81 nautical miles 90 . After the close-out of the R&D firing program in February 1960, five JUPITER missiles were fired. One of these was termed a live systems test in which the  missile was successfully fired under conditions approaching the tactical situation. The other four firings were designated as combat training launches  (CTL) to promote proficiency and confidence of the NATO troops. Three of these firings were successful and one was partially successful. Eight other CTL  firings were still scheduled as of 30 June 1962 91 . Funding As might be suspected, the status of funds for the JUPITER program varied with the fortunes existing at a particular point in time. This covered the range  from acceleration to the threat of program cancellation. At the outset, $10,720 million was allocated for R&D and $23 million for procurement and  production (P&P) in support of the development program. Prior to the beginning of FY 1957, plans called for $25 million R&D, _____________________________
