 | | The Ticonderoga, Arleigh Burke and Spruance class ships all use the Mark 41 Vertical Launch System, which allows them to mix and match any combination of Sea Sparrow, Standard Missile-2, ASROC and Tomahawk missiles; a Ticonderoga has 127 missile slots, an Arleigh Burke has 96 missile slots, and a Spruance has 61 missile slots. |
 | | The older, less capable Oliver Hazard Perry class frigates have a single Mark 13 guided missile launcher; normal loadout is 36 Standard MR missiles and 4 Harpoon missiles, although for a pure antiship mission like this the loadout could be changed to all Harpoons. |
