The Convair RIM-2 Terrier was a two-stage medium-range naval surface-to-air missile (SAM) and was among the earliest surface-to-air missiles to equip United States Navy ships. It underwent significant upgrades while in service starting with a beam-riding system with 10 nm range at a speed of Mach 1.8 and ending as a semi-active radar homing system with a range of 40 nm at speeds as high as Mach 3.
