Launch Complex 22 (LC-22) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Florida is a launch complex that was used for horizontal launches of cruise missiles between 1957 and 1960. It consisted of two launch rails from which XSM-73 Bull Goose and MGM-13 Mace missiles were tested. Unlike the other Mace launch site Launch Complex 21 no concrete structure was built to enclose the launch rails when it was converted to launch the Mace in 1959. This earned the pad the nickname of the softsite.
