Military Weapons The World Didn’t Think Were Possible
AGM-88 HARM
Here we have weapons handlers loading an AGM-88 HARM missile onto the wing of an F/A-18C Hornet on the USS Theodore Roosevelt in 2003. HARM stands for High-speed Anti-Radiation Missile and though they look small, can pack quite a punch.
With a range spanning over 80 miles and a speed of 760 mph, these supersonic air-to-ground missiles go to work by taking out enemy air defense systems equipped with radars. The weapons can deny enemy use of radar and communications by scanning the electromagnetic spectrum and were frequently used in Desert Storm and Iraq.
