The Tomahawk cruise missile, already a crucial part of the U.S. arsenal for decades, will remain in service for more than a half century before being replaced by a more advanced model that is still on the drawing table. In the meantime, the missile will receive a series of upgrades, particularly an anti-ship upgrade, to keep it relevant against existing threats.
