The Adverse Weather AGM-130, in production for the U.S. Air Force, provides the warfighter with advanced combat capabilities for superior effectiveness. These capabilities include 24-hour combat capability with a new INS/GPS Guidance System coupled with a state-of-the-art Imaging Infrared Focal Plane Array Seeker. This capability provides man-in-the-loop pinpoint target accuracy anywhere, anytime, throughout the world.

Guidance System: The guidance system consists of a tightly coupled INS/GPS that flies the AGM-130 to the target area day or night in any weather conditions on missile flight profiles varying from 20,000- to 200-foot altitude. This precision guidance system places the target in the AGM-130 seeker's field of view approximately 2-3 miles from the target. The Weapon System Operator then locks the AGM-130 seeker on the specific aimpoint of the target.

Seeker System: The Imaging Infrared Focal Plane Array 256x256 Midwave (3-5 Micron) Mercury Cadmium Telluride seeker and CCD-based TV seeker provide unparalleled 24-hour combat capability across the spectrum of environmental conditions. These two seekers allow the U.S. Air Force options to meet any combat environment.
