A federal grand jury indicted two Southern California men Wednesday on charges of conspiracy to smuggle three shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles into the United States for use abroad. Such missiles are designed to bring down aircraft.

The men are accused of agreeing to arrange shipment of the missiles from a country that is not named in the indictment.
