Exocet
The Exocet (French for "flying fish"〔 The missile's name was given by M. Guillot, then technical director at Nord Aviation, after the French name for flying fish.〕) is a French-built anti-ship missile whose various versions can be launched from surface vessels, submarines, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.
==Etymology==
The missile's name was given by M. Guillot, then the technical director at Nord Aviation.〔 It is the French word for flying fish from the Latin name ''exocoetus'', a transliteration of the Greek name for flying fish (''exōkoitos''), which literally means "lying down outside (ἒξω, κεῖμαι), sleeping outside", because it sometimes stranded itself in boats.
