The W73 is the
Nuclear Warhead for the aircraft launched tactical missile, Condor. The first production unit is planned for delivery in mid 1973. The Bendix responsibilities include the warhead outer case, the arming, fuzing and firing components and the plastic parts in the nuclear package. Sandia
40:(now Los Alamos National Laboratory). The W73 warhead was cancelled in 1970 in favor of a purely conventional warhead for Condor. Condor was approved for production in 1975 with a expected production run of 250 missiles, but was cancelled in early 1976 due to high cost.

Condor was to weigh 2,130 pounds (970 kg) at launch and carry a 286 kilograms (631 lb) warhead. It is unclear if the weight given is for the conventional or nuclear-armed version of the Condor.
