Military Knowledge: Tomahawk Cruise Missile – U.S. Army’s Strategic Long-Range Weapon
The Tomahawk is a subsonic, long-range, precision-guided cruise missile launched from submarines and surface platforms. Designed for deep land strikes and targeting high-value assets, it has become a cornerstone of U.S. military strike operations over the past half-century. Its ability to fly at low altitude, employ advanced combined guidance systems, and—on modern variants—retarget mid-flight, makes it a highly versatile and reliable weapon.
