−	Until the [[Federated Suns]] started researching them, the '''Cruise Missile''' had been resigned to history. Basically a large version of the unguided [[Arrow IV Artillery|Arrow IV]] missile, the [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns]] began testing the Cruise Missile in [[3065]]. Unlike the Arrow IV missile system, there is no "guided" or "homing" cruise missile. This relative inaccuracy offsets the tremendous damage they cause.<ref name="TOp284">''Tactical Operations'', pp. 284-285, "Cruise Missile - Basic Information</ref> What cruise missiles lack in precision however, they make up for in sheer terror.

−	The '''Cruise Missile 120''' is the largest Cruise Missile system tested by the AFFS to make it into common use. With three times the range of their [[Cruise Missile 50|smallest cousin]], these warheads can influence a battle far from the launcher location. Despite this, the Cruise Missile 120 wasn't likely to be used often, as [[WarShip]]-mounted [[Capital Missile]] Launchers are both cheaper and more maneuverable.<ref name="TOp284"/>	+	==Description==
