Launch Complex 18 (LC-18) is a launch complex at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station, Florida that was active during the late 1950s and early 1960s. It was used by Viking, Vanguard, Thor and Scout rockets. The complex consists of two launch pads, LC-18A, which was originally built by the United States Navy for the Vanguard rocket, and LC-18B, which was originally by the United States Air Force used for tests of the PGM-17 Thor missile.
