Interestingly, in the 1950s the Swiss Oerlikon company designed several surface-to-air missiles. Here are links to very few websites that contain any information on the projects:

I've gathered some information on an air-to-air missile that was built in Italy in the late 1950s or early 1960s under the C-7 designation. Reportedly it was tested on Italian air force's F-86 Sabres but was never adopted.
Here is the only photo (or drawing) of the missile that is available on...
