APKWS fielding team launches new laser-guided rocket capability for warfighter
An F-16 pilot from the Arizona Air National Guard Air Reserve Test Center fires an Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System II integrated M151 warhead during a test mission over the Eglin Air Force Base range in July. The system turns existing Hydra 70 unguided rockets into precision guided munitions through the addition of a laser guidance kit. The Arizona Air National Guard Air Reserve Test Center worked with the 96th Test Wing community on the tests. (Courtesy Photo)
