Standard Missile is the world’s choice for air defense and theater ballistic missile defense. For 50 years, Standard Missile technology has evolved to keep pace with threats and grow into new missions. Standard was developed as a replacement for the Terrier, Talos and Tartar surface-to-air missiles.

Standard Missile-6 (SM-6), also known as the Extended Range Active Missile, is being developed to meet the Navy’s requirement for an extended range anti-air warfare (ER-AAW) missile. The initial program will provide capability against fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft, unmanned aerial vehicles, and land-attack anti-ship cruise missiles in flight, both over sea and land. With a future integrated fire control, SM-6 will provide the surface Navy with an increased battlespace against over-the-horizon AAW threats, taking full advantage of the kinematics available to Standard Missile. SM-6 will employ the SM-2 Block IV airframe and proven seeker and guidance technology from across the company’s product lines.
