Type 80 air-to-ship missile

Type 80 air-to-ship missile (Japanese: 80式空対艦誘導弾, ASM-1)[1] is an air-launched anti-ship missile developed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.

It entered service with the Japan Air Self-Defense Force in 1980.

The major launch platforms for the Type 80 are the Mitsubishi F-1, and the P-3 Orion.

The missile is primarily intended as an air-launched coastal defence weapon.

In fact, it is somewhat more capable than this, able to engage both sea and land targets such as buildings and bridges.
