Blocco SM-2ER IV Modello 3D

A member of the Standard SM missile series, the RIM-156 Standard, also known as the SM-2ER Block IV, is a long-range naval surface-to-air missile principally designed to be fired from Vertical Launch Systems (VLS) on ships equipped with the AEGIS battle management system. These include the U.S. Ticonderoga-class cruisers, Japanese Kongo-class and U.S. Burke-class destroyers, and Spanish F-100 frigates. Its launch is controlled by the Mark 99 fire control system, its initial and mid-course guidance comes from from a AN/SPY-1 AEGIS search radar, and it uses terminal semi-active radar homing from an AN/SPG-62 illumination radar.
