The frequent minor wars of the last two decades have brought to the fore the guided missile as a weapon against all types of military target. Notable are the successful use of surface to air missiles in the Israeli-Arab war of 1973, the sink- ing of the destroyer Eilat by a Russian-made anti-ship missile, and the extensive use of surface to air and air to air missiles in the Vietnam conflict; more recent are the extensive and devastating use of surface to air, air to air, and anti-ship missiles in the Falkland Islands war of 1982 and the successful use of surface to air missiles in the hands of small irregular forces.
