I believe they make all sorts, I know they make avionics products still but
not sure if they are still part of the missile components. I was speaking
past tense in the sense of he AGM-69A, which for the most part is retired

125 boosters in Wichita to an Oklahoma ammo depot in 95 for destruction, the
year I retired. The last thing I did as shop chief was to sign the bill of
lading for the last load.
