Now that Poland is talking openly about needing nuclear weapons this becomes a legitimate technical subject.
Poland used Scuds in its WP days and now has MLRS launchers I think. As Belarus and Kaliningrad host nuclear Iskanders Polish SSM have some clear military targets
When the UK gave up carriers in the 60s the alternative was supposed to be a family of helicopter, ship and sub launched missiles. In the event while Wasp helicopters did get AS12s it took nearly a decade before Exocet equipped some destroyers and frigates. Sea Skua for Lynx did not arrive...

XSSM-1 PROVING EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE IN U.S.
Tokyo AEROSPACE JAPAN-WEEKLY in English 3 Aug 87 pp 4, 5
