Brimstone Precision Guided Missile

Overview

Brimstone (Neg#: n/a)

Brimstone is an autonomous air-to-surface missile that independently locates, tracks and engages fixed and moving targets day or night in any weather. A modular fire-and-forget missile system, it allows the warfighter to engage targets from standoff ranges.

Capabilities

Launched from fixed-wing aircraft. Easily integrated on a variety of manned and unmanned launch platforms.
Two attack modes:
- Direct attack mode allows aircrew to engage individual targets utilizing onboard sensors and targeting systems.
- Indirect attack mode allows aircrew to autonomously release weapons to a specified area where the radar millimeter wave seeker using advanced target algorithms locates and attacks specific target sets.
Large carriage and release envelope:
- Very low to high altitude
- Subsonic to transonic speeds
- Release throughout fighter aircraft flight envelope
Light-weight, compact design provides maximum stowed kills.
Large engagement footprint
- Off-boresight, all-weather capability holds a large area at risk.
Smart, MIL-STD 1760 launcher facilitates aircraft integration.
Tandem high-explosive warhead defeats explosive reactive armor (ERA).
