ESSM is designed to counter supersonic maneuvering anti-ship missiles. The new missile is 10 inches (25 cm) in diameter instead of the previous 8 inches, which allows for a more powerful motor. It also eliminates the mid-mounted wings entirely, replacing them with long fins and moves guidance control to the rear fins that offers considerably higher maneuverability.
