The Harpoon, first deployed in 1977, is an all-weather, over-the-horizon, anti-ship missile system. It has a low-level, sea-skimming cruise trajectory with active radar guidance, according to Boeing.

The Harpoon missile is the world’s most successful anti-ship missile and is in service with the armed forces of more than 30 countries.
