Summary / Abstract (Note) | As targets increasingly hide among civilians, a new generation of diminutive air launched precision munitions weighing 2.3-18 kg is emerging. While much of the focus is on arming smaller UAVs, there is a drive for all combat aircraft to be able to engage small groups on foot or in cars or sheltering in buildings while minimizing the risk of collateral damage. |
