[edit] Standard Air-to-Ground missiles?

Please see:

• http://www.worldpolicy.org/projects/arms/reports/israel.lebanon.FINAL2.pdf

Go to appendix I titled: "U.S.-Supplied Weaponry in Israel’s Military Inventory".

There is a row there with this info in 3 columns:

Tactical Air-to-Ground missiles (AGM)

Hellfire, Walleye, Maverick, Standard (numbers unknown)

Lockheed Martin/Boeing (Hellfire); Raytheon (Standard, Maverick); Martin Marietta – now Lockheed Martin (Walleye);

I want to link to the relevant wikipedia page with info on Standard Air-to-Ground missiles. The link is needed for the list here:

• Israel-United States military relations#Major U.S. military systems in Israeli use

in the missiles section. Does Raytheon make a Standard Air-to-Ground missile? --Timeshifter 21:00, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

• The answer to your question is: no. Currently, standard missile is strictly a navy Surface-to-air missile, and Raytheon makes no Air-to-ground variant. However, there may be a disconinued variation that performs the mission you discribed. Lasre 13:05, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. --Timeshifter 19:26, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

You might be looking for AGM-78 Standard ARM. It's an A-G anti-radiation weapon, there's even a picture of an Israeli variant there. --Dual Freq 22:16, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

I copied all the above discussion from Talk:Standard missile. --Timeshifter 14:43, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Title

Please note that a discussion is ongoing at Talk:RIM-161 Standard missile 3, as to whether the "M" in missile should be capitalised. Seeing as this could affect this article, I feel that it should be mentioned here. --GW_Simulations_{User Page | Talk} 22:30, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
