HMAS Stuart successfully fired 2 harpoon missiles & coordinated missile firings of 3 other ships during SINKEX at RIMPAC 2020’. Two MH-60R Romeo helicopters of Royal Australian Navy also fired Hellfire missiles. | Naval Post

The initial purpose of the Harpoon was to provide a high-subsonic, long-range, sea-skimming, over-the-horizon missile capable of striking enemy warships with lethal accuracy. The transition to Harpoon Block II marked a significant shift in the missile's operational capabilities as it was adapted to confer upon the Harpoon an anti-ship capability in littoral or coastal waters. | Interesting Engineering
