Other navies have purchased the Mk 13 missile launcher and the SM-1 standard SAM missiles. Since the US navy no longer wanted to support or develop this missile, they pulled the missiles off its OH Perrys and stored them for FMS sales to the other navies.
I have also heard that every time the missile was fired, the special radar absorbant paint was burned off the launcher. So good bye launcher and missile.
