BAE Systems Debuts First UAS‑Launched Precision Munition, Hitting Air and Ground Targets Flawlessly
BAE Systems Debuts First UAS‑Launched Precision Munition, Hitting Air and Ground Targets Flawlessly (IN BRIEF) BAE Systems conducted the first-ever launch of APKWS-guided munitions from a multi-rotor UAS during trials at Dugway Proving Ground, Utah. Using the SURVICE TRV‑150 drone, engineers integrated the APKWS laser-guidance kit—traditionally used on manned aircraft—to convert unguided rockets into precision weapons. The tests achieved perfect…
The tests took place at the US Army's Dugway Military Range in Utah. The unmanned missile carrier used during the test was the TRV-150, a modified version of the relatively simple, inexpensive, and mass-produced T-150 UAV developed by Malloy for carrying payloads. Malloy is currently the prime contractor for the Tactical Resupply Unmanned Air System (TRUAS) program for the US Marine Corps. This program resulted in the development of a militarize…
