Kh-59MK2 uses terrain-matching guidance

摘要

The new Kh-59MK2 version of the Raduga Kh-59M Ovod-M (AS-18 'Kazoo') family of air-launched missiles is virtually identical in shape and dimensions to the previous Kh-59MK variant, but uses satellite navigation and a new optical terrain-matching guidance system for much higher accuracy.rnThe redesigned missile was shown for the first time at the MAKS 2009 Moscow air show on 18-23 August. Raduga is part of Russia's Tactical Missiles Corporation (TMC).
