Lightweight Multirole Missile (a.k.a. Lightweight Multi-role Missile)



The Lightweight Multirole Missile weighs 28 lbs (13 kg), carries a 6.8-lb (3-kg) blast/fragmentation warhead, and is powered by a two-stage solid propellant motor made by Roxel Propulsion Systems (RPS). The LMM has an effective engagement range of up to 4.3 nautical miles (nm), or 8 kilometers (km), and may incorporate semi-active laser guidance to hone in on the target. Aviation Week reports that "target acquisition, designation and tracking are provided by onboard systems, while target confirmation and final launch authority are given by the ground station operator."
