The Jericho second stage of the Daniel rocket has absolutely nothing to do with the Israeli missile of the same name.

Jericho was the name of the grain used on the sustainer of the Matra R.422 surface-to-air missile. When the R.422 program was cancelled, the Jericho grain (version 1 and 2) was used by several ONERA rockets, including Daniel.

Jericho IV was then used on the Sud Aviation Belier rocket, second stage of the Centaur and Dragon sounding rockets.
