 AGM-84 Harpoon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The missile system has also been further developed into a coastal strike version, the AGM-84E Standoff Land Attack Missile (SLAM).
Initially developed for the US Navy to serve as its basic anti-ship missile for fleet-wide use, the AGM-84D has been adapted for use on Air Force B-52G bombers, which can carry from eight to 12 of the missiles.
Harpoon uses active radar homing and low-level, sea-skimming cruise trajectory to improve survivability and effectiveness.

 EMRR's Review: Launch Pad (The) - Harpoon AGM-84
The Harpoon flied straight as a rail, nice altitude on a D, and then right at apogee the ejection charge fired, and the nice mylar parachute deployed, and the Harpoon drifted down.
The Aerotech igniter clips didn't unattach themselves from the Harpoon, when it was about ten feet off of the pad, the leads ran out of slack, which caused them to pull on the harpoon, causing it to go horizontal.
This is an approximately 1/5th scale model of the Harpoon anti-ship missile.

The Harpoon has not been qualified for canister launch from a vertical-launch system (VLS) missile array, but it would be easy to implement, and some users have expressed interest in the capability.
SLAM has the same basic dimensions of the Harpoon, except that it has been "stretched" 70 centimeters (2 feet 4 inches), to a total length of 4.4 meters (14 feet 6 inches), along with an increase in weight of 70 kilograms (150 pounds).
In US Navy service, the Harpoon is operated with the P-3 Orion maritime patrol aircraft, the S-3 Viking antisubmarine aircraft, and the A-6 and F/A-18 attack aircraft.

 Boeing AGM/RGM/UGM-84 Harpoon
The AGM-84E Harpoon Block 1E SLAM (Stand-off Land Attack Missile) is essentially a new missile.
It is a high precision land-attack missile, which combines the airframe, engine and warhead of the anti-ship Harpoon with the WGU-10/B IIR seeker of the AGM-65D Maverick and the data link of the AGM-62 Walleye.
The "Harpoon 2000"/Block 2 proposal was apparently not too well received by the U.S. Navy, and although it's possible that the designation RGM-84J was allocated to the missile, no development order came forward.
