Javelin (AAWS-M)
Abstract
Javelin is a man-portable, fire-and-forget, medium-range missile with enhanced situational awareness and precision direct-fire effects to defeat armored vehicles, fortifications, and soft targets in a range of military operations. The Javelin Weapon System consists of a re-usable Command Launch Unit (CLU) and a modular missile encased in a disposable launch tube assembly. Javelin has a high kill rate against a variety of targets at extended ranges under day/night, battlefield obscurants, adverse weather and multiple counter-measure conditions. Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) funding provides for system improvements in accordance with the Javelin Capabilities Production Document Objectives and User priorities for future development.
