The AGM-114 HELLFIRE (HELicopter Launched FIRE and forget) missile is an antiarmor air-to-ground weapon which uses a shaped charge warhead to defeat hard point targets with minimal exposure of the launch helicopter to enemy fire. The first three generations of HELLFIRE missiles use a laser seeker. Guidance is provided through automatic terminal homing on laser signals reflected from a laser designated target. The fourth generation, Longbow HELLFIRE, uses a radar frequency seeker. Global Security
