At that time the Tomahawk and Harpoons were it as far as Navy surface to
surface anti ship missiles, at least as far as I recall. The Harpoon was a short range (100 miles?) and much smaller warhead. The Tomahawk was deployed as an anti ship missile. Keep in mind that at the time Tomahawks were targeted using terrain following radar. It was probably a pretty easy thing to use that to guide the missile to it's final approach to a target.
