US Navy Ordered More Than 7,000 APKWS

The US Navy ordered more than 7 thousand Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) Laser-Guided Rockets from BAE systems under a $175 million contract. 

The APKWS technology transforms standard 2.75-inch (70-millimeter) rockets into precision munitions by simply installing the guidance kit between the warhead and engine of an unguided rocket. The company expects additional orders to bring the total number of units for this production lot to 17,500.

APKWS can be used on fixed-winged platforms such as , F/A-18 and AV-8B as well as on rotary winged platforms such as  UH-1Y, AH-1Z and MH-60S/R.
