I don't understand why in 2016 new AIM-120E AMRAAM version could be introduced if long awaited AIM-120D model has been fielded only recently. Besides AGM-84G Harpoon is semi-official name of modernized older AGM-84D missiles. Maybe author of this database thinks about Harpoon Block III upgrade program. It was officially canceled back in 2009 but it is highly possible US Navy Harpoon Block I missiles are now quietly converted to Block III standard under periodic maintenance program...
