I think youa are ignoring what he said. He said he saw it on Mail Call. Now, I saw that episode too. There was an ICB designed in the '60s called the Mark VI. You aren't answering his question.
I didn't think that I was ignoring it. I will try to be more clear. There were and are many pieces of military hardware with "Mark" designations. It is however, usually used as a suffix to seperate versions of the same device.
Another method is to add an Alpha character to the end, to designate a variant. Like the F-15A/B, F-15E, and F-15G. All of them are "Eagles", but they are air superiority, strike, and wild weasel variants respectively.
I am not aware of any ICBMs or nuke devices that were designated solely "Mark IV". I could be mistaken though.
his not ignoring the question... the question was " do you have any theories?" and his answer is, just because it has "Mark" in its name, doesnt mean that they are linked in any way. therefor, there is nothing to theorize about...
