Air-to-ground Weapon System
The FT series precision guided bombs consist of 500kg (FT-1, FT-2
and FT-12), 250kg (FT-3/3A and FT-6/6A), 100kg (FT-7, FT-7A), 50kg
(FT-9), and less than 25kg (FT-10 and FT-8) aerial bombs with a
maximum delivering range of 150km and an accuracy of up to 1.5 m by
adopting the combined guidance technology. The bombs are mainly used
for attacking fixed or low-speed moving targets on the ground or
water. With the features of long delivering range, high accuracy,
all-weather, day and night, fire-and-forget and high cost
effectiveness, FT series PGB can be carried by bombers, attackers,
fighters and UAVs. Additionally, unguided bomb could be upgraded to
precision guided bomb with high reliability and low cost.
Air-to-ground small-sized series missiles are composed of AR-1,
AR-2, TL-1, TL-2, and TL-3 which can be mounted on UAV. They have
characteristics of low-cost, small-size, high accuracy and can be
loaded on surveillance & attack integrated UAV.
AR-1
OVERVIEW
AR-1 missile is a small laser semi-active guidance air-to-ground anti-tank missile designed with X-X aerodynamic layout. It can be equipped on UAV, helicopter and fixed wing aircraft to perform precision attack on fixed and low-speed moving targets. With the airborne laser irradiation or ground laser designator irradiation, it is suitable for UAVs or helicopters to launch at an altitude of 500–5,000 m. By utilizing unitary penetration blast warhead / unitary fragmentation-blast warhead, the missile is able to strike tanks and concrete fortifications.
AR-1 missile has been procured by many friendly countries.
MAJOR FEATURES
- High Accuracy
- Large Angle of Off-sight
- Lock on Before / After Launch
- Easy Operation
- Cost-effective Ratio
SYSTEM COMPOSITION
AR-1 AGM has four design separation surfaces and five cabins, which are respectively the seeker cabin, warhead cabin, electric control cabin, engine cabin (single-chamber single-thrust solid propellant rocket engine) and tail cabin from nose to tail. The missile has four wings and four tails which are arranged on the missile body in “X-X” shape.
