Multiple target seeking clustered munition and system.

摘要

A clustered munition in a system for low altitude aerial delivery, which releases multiple rocket powered missiles (20) each having the capability to cruise at a constant altitude and search for a target (22). Once a target is identified, the missile homes on and strikes the target. In the preferred form, the target seeking means is a radiometric seeker operating in the millimeter wavelength range, in which metal or similarly reflective targets stand out against the background and provide a significant signal which is used to program the terminal action of the missile.
