I recently came across an intriguing photo of what appears to be a
four-engined Titan first stage.

(scroll down to bottom of web page)

This website is in German (which I don't read or speak) and the photo
is captioned "SDI Titan".

Anyone have any additional details about this item?

Online translators like http://babelfish.altavista.com/ give you a first glance of the text (but don't expect to much).
The picture in question is a simple mockup for a SDI proposal shown in TV (You remember Ronald Reagan's "Star Wars Program"?). This stage has never been flown or even developed in detail.
