Difference Between Air/Land Launched Missiles

09/28/2010 12:07 PM

Provided that we have got two different missiles by name(A & B) but yet they have in common the guidance system as well as the engine say a turbofan; can they be called a single missile having two versions i.e air launched & land launched?? If not does this mean that though both have turbofans but thrust profiles/specific impulses are different for air & land launched missiles?? I do know that there will be some aerodynamic differences but what about internal makeup??

What a stupid question. Do you really think that a public open forum like this is a good place to discuss military hardware configuration.

I am going to assume this is general interest.

Although this is not the forum to go into it most of your GENERAL questions can be answered by a quick trip to the "Wikipedia" website or a general search of the internet and comparing different surface and sea missiles.
