 Martin AGM-12 Bullpup
In June 1963, all Bullpup missiles were redesignated in the AGM-12 series, as follows:
The Bullpup was the first successful guided tactical air-to-ground missile of the U.S. Navy and the USAF.
The GAM-79 White Lance missile was gradually merged into ongoing Bullpup development, and the result was a missile, which was essentially the same as the U.S. Navy's ASM-N-7a Bullpup A, with the exception of the improved guidance system.

 AGM-12 Bullpup - Military Aircraft
The AGM-12 Bullpup command-guided missile was the first mass-produced air-to-surface guided missile.
The AGM-12C Bullpup B was a larger follow-on version of the original Bullpup air-to-surface radio-guided missile.
The ASM-N-7 Bullpup was first deployed overseas in April 1959 when VA-212, equipped with FJ-4B Furies, sailed from Alameda on board Lexington to join the Seventh Fleet in the western Pacific.

 [7.0] Guided Air-To-Surface Missiles
Although the Air Force used some stock Bullpup-As as the "GAM-83", they were obtained strictly as an interim solution until the service could get an enhanced variant of the Bullpup-A, originally designated "GAM-83A" but confusingly redesignated "AGM-12B" in 1962 even though it wasn't the same as the Navy AGM-12B.
It is a little odd that there was no scheme to retrofit the large numbers of old Bullpups to laser-guided Bulldog spec and turn them into much more useful weapons, but it could be assumed that such a measure was either not technically reasonable, or not thought to be cost-effective even if it was.
Tens of thousands of Bullpup-As were built, mostly by W.L. Maxson Electronics as a subcontractor to Martin Marietta, with another 8,000 built under license by a European group headed by Kongsberg of Norway.

Modifications included installation of AGM-12C/E Bullpup and AGM-45A Shrike capabilities, installation of QRC-160 electronic countermeasures pods under the wing, and provision for an X-band radar.
The Air Force rescinded all flight restrictions on 12 October 1962 except those on the automatic instrument landing system.
After having entered service with TAC, USAFE’s 22d TFS/36th TFW at Bitburg AB, Germany, became the first unit outside CONUS to receive the F-105D, when on 12 May 1961 two F-105Ds landed there on the first high-flight mission.

 Raytheon AGM-65 Maverick
Development of the Maverick began in 1965, triggered by the bad performance of the AGM-12 Bullpup in South-East Asia.
It was produced in very large numbers, and its later versions will remain in the U.S. inventory for some time in the future.

 AGM 65 Maverick
Developed during the Vietnam War as a subsonic, launch-and-leave replacement for the AGM-12 Bullpup.

 US ASM
The original example was quickly upgraded further to produce the AGM-12B Bullpup-A. The Bullpup-A carried a 250-pound warhead, but the guidance method was quite cumbersome, requiring radio control using a joystick in the cockpit of the firing aircraft.
Notes: The AGM-12 Bullpup was the first mass-produced air-to-surface guided missile.
By 1976, the Bullpup was out of service in the US, but several foreign countries still use it as a training weapon, and some Third World nations use the Bullpup as a second-line weapon.

 The Grumman Tracker, Trader, & Tracer
There was also a minor upgrade of the S2F-3S with the designation "S-2G" to allow it to carry a pair of AGM-12 "Bullpup" radio-guided air-to-surface missiles.
A number of S2F-3S Trackers were later fitted with AN/AQA-7 sonobuoy processing gear and redesignated "S-2F", and apparently a large number of S2F-1S aircraft were updated to the same or similar specification and given the same S-2F designation.
The copilot guided them using a joystick and watching a flare on the tail of the missile.

 Viper AGM-80A
The missile's airframe was probably based on the larger AGM-12C/E versions of the Bullpup, but I have found no hard evidence for this.
Unfortunately, I don't know many details about Viper except that it was to use an on-board inertial guidance unit, and a radar-altimeter fuze for airbursts.

The AIM-4D and Bullpup were both pulled out of action early in Vietnam...for the same reason.
The missile had a flare in the rear end that the pilot could see as it flew towards the target.

 Texas Instruments AGM-83 Bulldog
The major drawback of the AGM-12 Bullpup air-to-surface missile was the manual guidance, which made the aircraft highly vulnerable during the flight of the missile.
Therefore the U.S. Navy and the USAF (with its AGM-79 Blue Eye and AGM-80 Viper projects) tried to develop pilot-independent guidance systems for the Bullpup to allow the firing aircraft to turn away after launch.
The new missile, designated AGM-83 Bulldog, was developed in cooperation with the Naval Weapons Center (NWC) at China Lake.

 AGM-12 Bullpup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The AGM-12 Bullpup is an air-to-ground missile which was used on the A-4 Skyhawk, A-6 Intruder and F-4 Phantom among others.
The Bullpup was the first mass-produced air-surface command guided missile, first deployed by the Navy in 1959 — initially designated the ASM-N-7 until it was redesignated AGM-12B in 1962.
The Bullpup was roll-stabilized and visually guided by the pilot or weapons operator using flares on the back of the missile to track the weapon in flight while using a control joystick to steer it toward the target.

One centerline and four wing pylons each rated at 3,600 lb (1,633 kg) for a total of 18,000 lb (8,167 kg) of bombs, laser-guided bombs, AGM-12 Bullpup and later AGM-62 Walleye / AGM-65 Maverick, AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missiles, AGM-84E SLAM, or AGM-45 Shrike and later AGM-88 HARM missiles, or B57 or B61 nuclear weapons.
They were theoretically capable of firing the AGM-45 Shrike anti-radiation missile, although they were apparently not used in that role.
To provide Navy squadrons with a SEAD aircraft to attack enemy air defense and SAM systems--a mission dubbed "Iron Hand" in Navy parlance--19 A-6As were converted to A-6B standard from 1967 to 1970.
