📖 TERMS ON THIS PAGE7terms
Capability of launching an anti-tank guided missile from an airborne platform, such as a helicopter or aircraft.
Launched from a ground-based platform, such as a vehicle or tripod, rather than an aircraft or other airborne system.
A guidance method that uses inertial navigation sensors together with satellite‑based GPS signals to determine a missile’s position and steer it toward a target.
Launched from naval platforms, such as ships or submarines.
Sea‑skimming is a low‑altitude flight profile in which a missile or projectile flies close to the sea surface to minimize radar detection and increase survivability.
A guidance method where a missile uses radar reflections from an external illuminator, typically a ground or airborne radar, to track and intercept a target.
Enables real-time sharing of position, targeting, and sensor data among aircraft and platforms for coordinated combat operations.
