How many types of cruise missile?

Cruise missiles can be broadly categorized into three main types: land-attack cruise missiles (LACMs), anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs), and anti-submarine cruise missiles (ASuMs). LACMs are designed to strike ground targets, ASCMs target naval vessels, and ASuMs are specialized for engaging submarines. Additionally, cruise missiles can be further classified based on their launch platforms, such as air-launched, ground-launched, and sea-launched variants.
