Didn’t originally have this mode, but tested back in May 2007 – so I guess its operational in this role.

Isn’t it the case that any SARH SAM could in principle be used for anti-ship (missile homes in on reflected radar emissions: just point the radar illuminator to a ship rather than to an aircraft). See Sea Sparrow and Standard missiles.
