	Air-to-surface missile - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An air-to-surface missile (also, air-to-ground missile, ASM or AGM) is a missile designed to be launched from military aircraft (bombers, attack aircraft, fighter aircraft or other kinds) and strike ground targets on land, at sea, or both.
		One of the major advantages of air-to-surface missiles over other weapons available for aircraft to use to attack ground targets is the standoff distance they provide.
		Most air-to-surface missiles are fire-and-forget in order to take most advantage of the standoff distance - they allow the launching platform to turn away after launch.

	AGM-119B Penguin Anti-Ship Missile
		A "fire-and-forget" missile, the Penguin has a 360 degree arc, autonomous search, acquisition and track during terminal phase, discriminates between target decoys and is resistant to IR countermeasures.
		Penguin MKI became operational with the Norwegian and Turkish navies in 1972.
		This provision was based on the existing shortfall in Penguin missile inventory and the premise that the Navy would be able to negotiate a very favorable price at around 55 percent of the average unit procurement cost for previous lots.

	Penguin
		The smallest penguin species is the Little Penguin (also known as the Fairy Penguin), which is typically 35 to 40 cm tall and 1 kilogram.
		Diving penguins reach 6 to 12 km/h, though there are reports about velocities of 27 km/h (which are probably realistic in the case of precipitate flight).
		Penguin is thought by some to derive from the Welsh words pen (head) and gwyn (white), applied to the Great Auk, which had a conspicuous white patch between the bill and the eye (although its head was fl), or from an island off Newfoundland known as "White Head".

		Emergency flotation bags are installed in the stub wing fairing of the main landing gear on both sides of the aircraft.
		A Block II improvement program is currently being planned that will further enhance the system's versatility by adding a low-frequency dipping sonar, a multi-mode radar subsystem, and improvements to the aircraft's survivability systems, data link, communications system, and operator interfaces.

		Penguin has five basic attacks: - Shotgun Ice (Ground): He'll stay on one side of the room and fire 4 chunks of ice at you.
		The Fire Wave is best because Penguin seems to have no invulnerability when preparing to slide this time, so you can almost just stand there with the Fire Wave active (it'll run out faster, though).
		The only enemies in this section are the missile launchers, and they can be blasted with only a few charged shots, and dodging their attacks is easy.

	US develops hopping 'Lunar Penguin' \| The Register
		Despite recent military assertions to the contrary, it seems that the US is running a covert fl op to militarise the Moon through deployment of a hopping, rocket-powered "Penguin" designed to cover vast lunar distances with a single bound.
		It was originally developed to search for ice at the lunar south pole, and is now being pitched as a precision delivery vehicle for the science community or, as Raytheon puts it, a "robotic precursor" which can carry out a reccy of possible landing sites for manned missions.
		Since the Penguin forms part of the NASA's "Project Constellation" to explore next-generation technology for exploration of the Moon and Mars and beyond, Raytheon is conscious of the need to keep the budget within reasonable parameters.
