Orka (Missile)

The Orka is a family of missiles entering service with the Ringerike armed forces in 1972, in the forms of both an Anti-Radiation and TV-Guided Air-to-Surface missile. It carried a heavy payload at high-subsonic speeds, which made it ideal for striking hardened ground targets. It was possible to target multiple different radar wavelength with the Orka-A, however the specific wavelength set could only be selected on the ground, requiring the radar type being known prior to any sortie's launch.

Variants

 * Orka-A: Passive radar anti-radiation missile entering service in 1972.
 * Orka-B: TV-Guided Land Attack/Anti-Shipping variant entering service in 1972, replaced by the Hvalross beginning in 1985 for which it provided the basis.
