MANSUP are a Brazilian-Emirati family of all-weather, over-the-horizon anti-ship, surface-to-air and land-attack cruise missiles, that evolved into a broad range of weapons from an early-2000s original design of a anti-ship missile that aimed to achieve performance similar to the MBDA MM40 Exocet Block II. The name MANSUP stands for "Míssil Antinavio Nacional" in Portuguese.
