Shrikes

A U.S. Navy ordinance man checks out an AGM-45 "Shrike" antiradar missile on a Navy A-4.
At first the Paveway program was supposed to be an off shoot of an earlier military development project which would have mated a laser seeker to a Shrike missile. However, physics got in the way and TI engineers went back to the drawing board and ultimately developed the Paveway line of LGBs. -- U.S. Navy photo.
