SSM-N-8A Regulus seen at Point Mugu

I do find it a little strange that items like this are displayed, but I can not help but have an interest .

I saw this at Point Mugu were they had formerly been trialed. Below is a description from wikipedia.

 

The SSM-N-8A Regulus or the Regulus I was a United States Navy-developed ship-and-submarine-launched, nuclear-capable turbojet-powered second generation cruise missile, deployed from 1955 to 1964. Its development was an outgrowth of U.S. Navy tests conducted with the German V-1 missile at Naval Air Station Point Mugu in California.
