RIM-8J
usn_rim-8SAM/ASuWUSA
The RIM-8J Talos is a massive long-range surface-to-air missile system used primarily by USN cruisers. It flies a beam-riding midcourse phase with a semi-active radar homing terminal phase. The missile requires some assembly prior to launch so rate of fire is lower than more modern systems, as indicated by the very large physical size of the magazine used by the system.
