Historical Overview of the AGM-62 Walleye II

The AGM-62 Walleye II is an advanced TV-guided weapon developed by the United States in the 1960s. Its use was crucial during the Vietnam War and in subsequent military operations such as US Navy actions in the Middle East and Operation Desert Storm. The bomb was employed to precisely neutralize ground and naval targets; its high effectiveness and the safety it afforded crews—who could launch it from outside heavily defended areas—were key to the success of this technology.
