Military Ant Armor Weapon Systems

Introduction

The system of anti-armor missiles of javelin seems to be a Juste of weapon out of the future, but it is on the battle field today. The missile can be aimed using a combination of FLIR or thermal vision with a laser designator. Once the missile is launched, the soldier does not need to wait around until it strikes the target, because the missile closes with key on the target and only flies in an autonomous way to him. Perhaps the most impressive exploit of the javelin is its parabolic flight trajectory. The missile automatically calculates a parabolic flight trajectory with the target once launched based on the distance to the target, making it possible the missile to strike the weakest point of the target that it is the roof of a building or the higher trap door of a tank. The warhead of the javelin is a warhead charged by duelle form, which can even demolish newest of the active shielding.

History

In 1989, the American army allotted a contract for the development of the javelin like replacement for the anti-tank missile of the M47 dragon. The joint undertaking of javelin was consisted Texas Instruments (now systems of missiles of Raytheon) of Dallas, Texas and electronics and missiles of Lockheed Martin (maintaining missiles and shooting orders), of Orlando, Florida.

Raytheon is responsible for the unit of launching of order (CLU), of the unit of councils of missile, the software system and the management of electronic technician of system. Lockheed Martin is responsible for the researcher of missile, the technology of missile and the assembly (Cap, 19-22).

In medieval Europe and Japan periods ago of intense competition between the manufacturers of weapon and the manufacturers of armour to maintain with each different advances in technology, arms race as if she ...
