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.

Guidance system combining inertial navigation (self-contained motion tracking) with GPS (satellite-based positioning) for precise trajectory correction in ballistic missiles.

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.

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.

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

A two-stage ATGM propulsion system where a booster stage initially accelerates the missile before a sustainer stage maintains flight velocity.
