Ready after 2018
According to Jim Hager,
president and CEO of Arnold
Defense: ‘‘Further development
work is required, but if all goes
well we are expecting to have
the system ready for sale
towards the end of 2018.’’
The Fletcher weapon system
includes the platform, pods of
four 2.75in laser-guided rockets
and a laser designator.
The rockets can be supplied
with different types of
warhead including high-
explosive, to enable a wide
range of targets to be engaged
with a precision effect at ranges
of around 5km.
