Ships Ahoy! The Harpoon Missile Family

Posted by Matt in April 2nd, 2007

The sub-sonic, wave-skimming *GM-84 Harpoon is the US Navy’s sole anti-shipping missile, with the minor exception of small AGM-119B Penguin missiles and anti-tank Hellfires carried on some H-60 helicopters. The Harpoon has accordingly been adapted into several variants, and exported to a wide variety of world navies. Its best known competitor is the French/MBDA *M39/40 Exocet, though recent years have witnessed a growing competitive roster at both the subsonic (Israel’s Gabriel family, Russia’s SS-N-27 Klub family, Saab’s RBS15, Kongsberg’s stealthy NSM, China’s YJ-8/C-802 used recently in Lebanon) and supersonic (Russia’s SS-N-22 Sunburn/Moskit and some SS-N-27 Klub variants, India’s PJ-10 BrahMos derived from Russia’s SS-N-26) levels.

PJ-10 Brahmos
The BrahMos, a derivative of the Yakhont, was developed by a joint venture between India's Defence Research and Development Organisation and Russia's NPO Mashinostroyenia. The BrahMos missile is a product of an Indo-Russian joint venture known by the same name. Registered in December 1995, the company was set up as a result of an inter-governmental agreement between Russia and India, eventually signed in February 1998, to design, develop, produce and market a supersonic cruise missile jointly.

Zvezda: Captured German Interrogated
From the 2002 Russian film Zvezda, made by the Russian film studio MosFilm. This film, set in 1944, is about a team of 7 Soviet scouts who go behind enemy lines to gather intelligence. Their code name is "zvezda", which means "star"; the code name of their radio base is "earth". In this scene, they grab a Wehrmacht soldier on his way out of a field hosipital and interrogate him. Great film, IMO, and very popular in Russia, almost as popular as 9 Rota (about Soviets in Afghanistan). Much better than Saving Private Ryan, which inspired the director to make it, as a kind of response from the real WW2 (as opposed to the superfluous cake-walk on the western front that only accounted for 10% of German casualties). Suggested reading: -My Silent War, by Kim Philby -No Other Choice, by...

Zvezda: Last Stand (Warning!: Spoiler Scene)
From the 2002 Russian film Zvezda, made by the Russian film studio MosFilm. This film, set in 1944, is about a team of 7 Soviet scouts who go behind enemy lines to gather intelligence. Their code name is "zvezda", which means "star"; the code name of their radio base is "earth". In this scene, the climactic shoot-out, they are finally cornered in a barn while trying to radio the intel they gathered back to base. Great film, IMO, and very popular in Russia, almost as popular as 9 Rota (about Soviets in Afghanistan). Much better than Saving Private Ryan, which inspired the director to make it, as a kind of response from the real WW2 (as opposed to the superfluous cake-walk on the western front that only accounted for 10% of German casualties).

AllahXCM developed to destroy Iranian nuclear fuel plant
The AllahXCM (AXCM) also know as the Allah X Cruise Missle (where CM really means Mohammed Conquestor which has been reversed and changed around for propaganda purposes) is a secret, highly classified, advanced cruise missile system designed to use dirty nuclear radiation technology to make targets uninhabitable by human beings. Contengency plans for the usage of AllahXCM include the destruction of underground nuclear facillities being developed by Iran. Plans are already in the system to use the AllahXCM to destroy underground factories being used by Iran to enrich uranium. What is novel about the AllahXCM is that it contaminates the target with extremely high doses of radiation so as to make the area uninhabitable to humans and animals for thousands of years. The existence of the...
