New images of a US Navy Super Hornet carrying air-launched SM-6 missiles underwing may suggest the branch is about to put one of the longest-ranged air-to-air missiles in history into service.

These new weapons, we've come to learn, have been given the designation AIM-174, and could give America's carrier-based fighters the means to engage enemy aircraft from literally hundreds of miles away, while also offering the ability to engage enemy warships and even to intercept inbound threats like ballistic or cruise missiles.
