Anti-Armor Missile Digest

摘要

This digest provides a compilation of short reports on two categories of antitank missiles: legacy systems which may still be in service but are no longer in production, and future programs which are under discussion but have not yet received enough funding to merit a full report. The Serbian arms export firm Yugoimport-SDPR debuted their new ALAS Advanced Light Attack System at IDEX-07. This is a fiber-optic guided missile similar in conception to the US EFOG-M or MBDA Polyphem. It is powered by a small turbojet engine and uses a trailing fiber-optic wire for guidance. The initial flight path is INS, followed by the terminal phase using a TV seeker in the head with autotrack by contrast.
