Description

The combat-proven Sea Skua is a short range, all-weather, sea-skimming, subsonic anti-ship missile. It features a semi-active radar homing head and can be launched from both helicopters, surface ships and coastal batteries. The launching platform must illuminate the target and select the terminal sea-skimming altitude of the Sea Skua missile prior to release. The ship-launched Sea Skua is launched from a canister and is ideal for installation on small ships.
