Here y'all go, a rocket nobody asked for! Ugly rocket #1, the Hermes II
From Wikipedia:
The initial goals of Project Hermes included Hermes B, a ramjet-powered cruise missile. Hermes B was soon split into a Hermes B-1 test vehicle and a Hermes B-2 operational missile. Hermes B-1 soon evolved into Hermes II. In June 1946 General Electric's contract was amended to include a two-stage missile which used a V-2 as its first stage, with a ramjet-powered supersonic cruise missile as the second stage.
Basically it's a V-2 with a giant ramjet sticking out the sides and even bigger fins, and it looks ugly.
