Mobile missile launcher and guidance system - is capable of being transported by modified cross country vehicle for speedy deployment

摘要

The modular constructed launcher assembly (11) and guidance control cabin (12) are mounted onto a steel section frame (13) which is attached to the chassis of a cross country vehicle (10) by self-centering bolts. The complete launcher assembly (11) which consists of four containers (11a), each having four missile launch tubes (11b), can be elevated as a single unit to its operational position by a hydraulic ram unit. The air-conditioned guidance control cabin (12) is fitted with the necessary guidance, monitoring and comminication equipment requred to control a missile engagement sequence and fulfil the fole of an independent or integrated defence system. USE/ADVANTAGE - Mobile missile system which can be quickly mounted on a relatively inexpensive carrier vehicle. High degree of mobility gives weapon system broad operational spectrum.
