The Army said the 64-inch-long black missile was attached to a 10th Combat Aviation Brigade Apache helicopter heading to the New York Air Show, and it was last seen painted with the words “U.S. Army”.

Fort Drum officials say that the missile does not carry any explosives, nor is it motorized. Four U.S. Air Force commanders were punished in 2013 when they accidentally left blast doors guarding long-range nuclear missiles open and unattended.

Officials for the military branch are turning to the public for assistance in locating the missing missile. If anyone has information on the missile, or its possible whereabouts, military officials ask you to contact the 10th Mountain Division Operations Center: 315-772-6324. The 100-pound steel casing is used to simulate the weight of a missile during flight.

In 2012, about 100 homes outside Fort Hood, Texas were evacuated for about an hour after an inert missile fell from a helicopter into a nearby field, leaving a hole that The Associated Press described as several feet deep. Call the number above for further instructions on returning the missile back to the military.
