Capability of launching an anti-tank guided missile from an airborne platform, such as a helicopter or aircraft.

The initial propulsion phase where a high-thrust motor accelerates the missile to operational velocity.

Fire-and-forget refers to a missile guidance system where the missile guides itself to its target after launch, requiring no further input from the operator.

A guidance system in ATGMs that uses infrared sensors to create a thermal image of the target for precise homing.

Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than visible light, used in missile guidance systems to detect and track targets based on heat signatures.

Launched from naval platforms, such as ships or submarines.

A proximity fuze is a detonation mechanism in ATGMs that triggers when the missile approaches within a set distance of a target, using sensors like radar or laser to detect proximity.

Enables real-time sharing of position, targeting, and sensor data among aircraft and platforms for coordinated combat operations.
