The Saturn MLV-5-23S was a 1968 Boeing proposal to be used for a planned expedition to Mars. The basic vehicle was a Saturn V using four 156-inch strap-on boosters and a Nerva atomic upper stage.

The model is the Monogram Saturn V kit and four SRBs from Revell Space Shuttle kits. The nose cone is from an MPC Pilgrim Observer kit.
