APKWS is the U.S. government's only Program of Record for the semi-active, laser-guided 2.75 inches (70 mm) rocket. [8] It converts the Hydra 70 unguided rocket into a precision guided munition through the addition of a mid-body guidance unit developed by BAE Systems.

Combat-proven for over a decade, BAE Systems’ APKWS® laser guidance kit redefines precision munitions by hitting targets with pinpoint accuracy and minimal collateral damage – delivering critical lethality when it matters most.

2022年8月31日 · This is the latest version of the rocket launcher optimized for laser-guided 2.75” rockets FZ275LGR. The new launcher stores six guided rockets in closed containers, protecting the rocket and its seeker from foreign objects (FOD), and the rocket flux generated by neighboring rockets launches.

2014年6月9日 · The Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) is a combat-proven, laser-guided 70mm rocket system designed and manufactured by BAE Systems in collaboration with the US Government. The weapon system is currently deployed by the US military forces.

L3Harris’ Vehicle-Agnostic Modular Palletized ISR Rocket Equipment (VAMPIRE) is a portable kit that can be installed on most vehicles with a cargo bed for launching of the advanced precision kill weapons system (APKWS) or other laser-guided munitions.

The FZ275 LGR - Laser Guided Rocket is a weapon system by Thales (formerly Forges de Zeebrugge). It is intended to provide a low-cost guided missile compatible with existing unguided 70mm rocket launch platforms. The HE (High Explosive) version of the FZ275 LGR is equipped with a HE warhead with impact fuze. [5]

The MLHS is a new surface-based, 23-round, 2.75-inch/70mm precision-guided rocket launcher. When coupled with the Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS), the most accurate precision guided weapon in its class, the MLHS is set to transform the surface defence world by delivering a low-cost, high-capacity surgical strike capability.

2024年8月23日 · The FZ275 Semi-Active Laser (SAL) guided rocket, developed by Thales Belgium (formerly Forges de Zeebrugge), is a precision effector designed to defeat soft and lightly armoured ground targets.

GATR is equipped with a cutting-edge warhead, which can penetrate concrete, and has an advanced Electronic Safe and Arm fuze. The system can be launched from combat vehicles, stationary launchers, helicopters and fighter aircraft and is designed for missions against stationary or fast moving targets that are either soft or lightly armored.

2020年6月1日 · The team used Arnold’s FLETCHER 2.75-inch/70mm Weapon System concept – a purpose-built laser-guided rocket launcher for ground vehicles – to fire several successful shots. The ground-launch capability builds on hundreds of successful shots in combat from rotary- and fixed-wing aircraft.
