  Manufacturing and assembly sequence, probably for the Convair ICBM study from 1951 based on the 7 engines. Differs from the eventual Convair ICBM (Atlas) in number of engines, lack of a common bulkhead between LOX and fuel tanks, use of pressure-fed propellants instead of turbopumps, and possible fins.
