Description
Detailed resin rendition of two French air-to-surface, wire-guided anti-shipping missiles which were used not only with French aircraft and helicopters. The countries which introduced this weapon were many (France, UK, Spain, Argentina, Greece, Turkey, Iraq and others) as well as the types armed with the weapon (to name only few of them: the Breguet Alizé, Lockheed P-2 Neptune, Breguet Atlantique, Westland Wasp, Aérospatiale Alouette III, Hawker-Siddeley Nimrod, Westland Wessex and others). The 1982 Falkland War made the missile famous as the AS-12s launched from Westland Wessex helicopters hit and sunk Argentine submarine ARA Santa Fe.
