Unlike all those commercial/civilian grade air to air rockets. You know for competative ballooning.

Here soon we would even be able to have a few nuclear tipped rockets for home defense. What is this county coming to.

"Gonna fix it up. Pinstripe exterior, a 4-barrel carb. Maybe a Grumman 817 inertial guidance, electronic countermeasures. And when I save a little money, a classic Raytheon X-193 class 2 half-megaton warhead. Then I can show it off at the meetup on weekends."
