The '''Air-Launched Arrow Homing Missile ''' was developed by the [[Terran Hegemony]] in [[2600]] as a companion to the ground-based [[Arrow IV Homing Missile]]. The design was similarly lost during the destruction of the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] until it was recovered by the [[Capellan Confederation]] in [[3046]] to make up for the lack of ground-based launchers.  While offering incredibly destructive potential and pinpoint accuracy, the enormous drag created by the weapon makes it an unpopular choice for pilots.<ref name="TOp358+">''Tactical Operations'', pp. 358-359, "Arrow VI Homing Missiles (Air-Launched Version)"</ref>

Air-Launched Arrow Missiles weigh 1 ton and take up 5 bomb slots.  They function the same as regular Arrow Homing missiles, however they may not be fired by units at an altitude of 3 or lower on the Low Altitude map, nor can they be used against airborne targets.  Aerospace units may not fire a missile and [[Target Acquisition Gear|TAG]] in the same turn, but may release it and then guide it to the target on the following turn.<ref name="TOp358+"/>
