Khipha abakhiqizi nabahlinzeki abahlukahlukene be-Tomahawk missile bese ubahlukanisa ngama-comma
Context:I-Tomahawk (/ˈtɒməhɔːk/) i-Land Attack Missile (TLAM) i-long-range, all-weather, jet-powered, subsonic cruise missile esetshenziswa kakhulu yi-United States Navy kanye ne-Royal Navy emisebenzini yokuhlaselwa komhlaba esekelwe emikhunjini nangaphansi kwamanzi.  Ngaphansi kwenkontileka evela e-US Navy, i-Tomahawk yaklanywa e-APL / JHU kuphrojekthi eholwa nguJames Walker eduze kwaseLaurel, eMaryland, futhi yaqala ukwenziwa yiGeneral Dynamics ngawo-1970. Kwakuhloswe ukuthi kugcwaliswe indima ye-medium-to-long-range, i-low-altitude missile eyayingaqaliswa kusuka epulatifomu yempi yasolwandle, futhi yafaka umklamo we-modular owamukela izinhlobonhlobo eziningi ze-warhead, ukuqondisa, kanye namakhono okufinyelela. Okungenani izinhlobo eziyisithupha nezinguqulo eziningi ezithuthukisiwe ze-TLAM zengezwe selokhu kwethulwa umklamo wokuqala, kufaka phakathi izinhlobo ezindiza emoyeni, ezingaphansi komhlaba, nezomhlaba ezihlome ngezikhali ezijwayelekile nezikhali zenuzi. Ngo-1992 kuya ku-1994, iMcDonnell Douglas Corporation yaba ukuphela komhlinzeki weTomahawk Missiles futhi yakhiqiza ama-Block II nama-Block III Tomahawk missiles futhi yakhiqiza kabusha ama-Tomahawks amaningi ukuze ahambisane nemininingwane ye-Block III. Ngo-1994, uHughes wabiza kakhulu kunenkampani yezindiza iMcDonnell Douglas Aerospace ukuze ibe ukuphela komhlinzeki wezikhali zempi i-Tomahawk. Ngo-2019, okuwukuphela kwezinhlobo ezazisebenza kwakuyizinhlobo ezingezona ezenyukliya, ezikhishwe olwandle ezenziwe yiRaytheon. Ngo-2016, uMnyango Wezokuvikela wase-U.S. wathenga ama-missile angu-149 e-Tomahawk Block IV ngemali engu-$202.3 million.
