Japanese Prime Minister recently said that Japan will purchase 400 Tomahawk missiles from the United States.
About Tomahawk missile:
It is an American-made long-range cruise missile used for deep land attack warfare.
It can be launched from a ship or submarine and can deliver its warhead precisely to a target at a long range.
They are designed to fly at extremely low altitudes at high subsonic speeds.
It has an accuracy of about 5 meters (16 feet).
The 6-meter (18.4-foot-) long missile has a range of up to 2,400 km (1,500 miles) and can travel as fast as 885 km (550 miles) per hour.
The missile is powered by a solid propellant during its launch phase. Thereafter it is powered by a turbofan enginethat does not emit much heat, which makes infrared detection difficult.
It is capable of twisting and turning like a radar-evading fighter plane.
There are several variants of the Tomahawk missile, each with specialized capabilities.
