Page "Convair" Paragraph 8

The Convair Division produced its own airplane designs, such as several airliners, until 1965, when it shifted from these to airframe / aerostructure subcontracting projects for other companies.

Convair also shifted more money and effort into its outer space products, especially rocket boosters.

The Convair-made and cryogenically fueled Atlas missile ICBM for the U. S. Air Force had within just a handful of years become obsolete, and had been replaced by the room-temperature liquid-fueled Titan II missile and the solid-fueled Minuteman missile.
