麦道宇航公司目前已进入两个里程碑,一是反舰导弹“捕鲸叉”第一次从攻击型战斗机F/A—18上发射,二是“战斧”巡航导弹生产突破了100枚大关。“捕鲸叉”/F/A—18武器系统,在南加利福尼亚海岸外的太平洋导弹试验中心曾进行过试验。从该公司制造的战斗机上成功地发射后,导弹击中了目标舰,当时未装实战战斗部。 McDonnell Douglas has now entered two milestones, first, anti-ship missile “whaling fork” for the first time fired from the attack fighter F / A-18, and second, “tomahawk” cruise missile production exceeded 100 large turn off. The Whaling Fork / F / A-18 weapon system was tested at the Pacific Missile Test Center off the coast of southern California. After the successful launch on the company-made fighter jets, the missile hit the target ship without the actual warhead.
