📖 TERMS ON THIS PAGE6terms
Capability of launching an anti-tank guided missile from an airborne platform, such as a helicopter or aircraft.
Guidance method where a missile follows a directed energy beam (e.g., radar or laser) to its target.
The initial propulsion phase where a high-thrust motor accelerates the missile to operational velocity.
Launched from a ground-based platform, such as a vehicle or tripod, rather than an aircraft or other airborne system.
Enables real-time sharing of position, targeting, and sensor data among aircraft and platforms for coordinated combat operations.
A tandem warhead configuration in anti-tank missiles where a smaller precursor charge detonates reactive armor, followed by a larger main charge to penetrate the underlying armor.
