Historical Context
The Mark 7 was the first US tactical fission bomb designed for toss delivery using the Low-Altitude Bombing System (LABS). Produced from 1952 to 1967, approximately 1,700–1,800 were built. Its W7 warhead also served as the basis for the BOAR rocket, the Mark 90 Betty nuclear depth charge, and the MGR-1 Honest John rocket.
