Zitat:Indian Army and DRDO successfully test-fire indigenous ATGMshttps://www.army-technology.com/news/ind...ous-atgms/
The laser-guided missiles destroyed targets at two different ranges with precision.
The Indian Army and the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) have successfully tested all-indigenous, laser-guided, anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). The ATGMs were fired from the Arjun Main Battle Tank (MBT) at KK Ranges with the support of the Armoured Corps Centre & School (ACC&S), Ahmednagar, Maharashtra, India.
In a statement, the Indian Ministry of Defence said the missiles hit the targets at two different ranges with precision and successfully destroyed them. [...] The ATGM uses a tandem, high explosive, anti-tank warhead to hit explosive reactive armour (ERA) protected armoured vehicles.
The weapon system is equipped with a multi-platform launch capability. At present, the ATGM is undergoing technical evaluation trials from the 120mm rifled gun of the Arjun MBT.
