Before they tried launching the ramjet powered Navaho cruise missiles atop the LOX/RP-1 (kerosene) powered booster rockets, North American built and flew several reusable turbojet powered Navaho test vehicles that were designated X-10 (see:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_American_X-10
and
http://www.designation-systems.net/dusrm/app1/x-10.html
). The X-10 vehicles were very similar to the Navaho cruise stages.
