I thank you both for your replies. While I'm a little sad that the "War in Space" series never went any further (Bill Stine's word is definitive, as he was there at the time), it also means that this entire series--consisting of just two kits--is easy to collect and/or clone. The latter will be even easier when Semroc's "Retro-Repro" kits of the Satellite Killer and the Red-Eye come out, and:
Since the Red-Eye uses the same fins and antennas as the Satellite 62SL, that kit too would be "half-cloned" already... Sirius Rocketry has resin duplicates of the '62SL's hemispherical nose cone (as well as the Red-Eye's conical nose), and Semroc may already offer a balsa version of the Satellite 62SL nose cone.
