Mea Culpa.
I just looked it up on Globalsecurities.org and it does not discuss the heat seeking configuration I am familiar with. Of course not all the good toys are configured for submarine launch.

Cool. It’s a pretty useful tool that has been adapted for many uses. Some of the airlaunched models have in excess of 100 nmi range. Anyway I’d take that over 16” guns anyday. With all due respect T the 16” were great for their time but the anti-ship missle technology rendered them obsolete except for shore bombardment and and finishing cripples off.

Left MM2 after getting busted for calling the XO a boot. Stupid mistake, a drunken night in Pearl when he asked for I.D. as I requested permission to board.

That's aft engineroom for anyone in Rio Linda.
