Abstract
The AGM-88E Advanced Anti-Radiation Guided Missile (AGM-88E AARGM) program fields a major system upgrade to the AGM-88 High Speed Anti-Radiation Missile (HARM) inventory. The AGM-88E AARGM provides a significant enhancement to Naval operational capability in the Offensive Counter Air/Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) mission area by technological upgrade to the HARM guidance system to counter enemy use of simple and cheap countermeasures and tactics such as mobility and radar shutdown. The AGM-88E AARGM is employed in the Offensive Counter Air/SEAD role in direct support of all mission areas within the objective force (e.g., Strike Warfare, Amphibious Warfare, Anti-Surface Ship Warfare, and Command and Control Warfare and Information Warfare) providing a rapid, organic response to air defense threats ranging from Smaller Scale Contingencies to Major Theater War. It will be employed by Naval aircraft operating fromboth sea and land bases
