But seems to be the first shot of such a rocket.
< P > The US Navy posted a photo of the AH-1Z Viper infantry shock helicopter with an unknown long-range ammunition. There is evidence that the Marine Corps develops at least one new rocket, precision Attack Strike Missile (PASM). About this & nbsp; writes & nbsp; the war zone.
< p > The task was to significantly increase the range at which AH-1Z helicopter can affect the targets on land and at sea. The case consider this the key to ensuring the relevance of helicopters in the future large -scale conflict, especially in the Pacific Ocean against China.

Viper also has test-measuring modules on pylons as well as a pair of fuel tanks.
< P > The missiles themselves have an X-shaped location of the tail fin and the sliding wings under the hulls. The image of Navair is of low quality, but ammunition seems to be designed to reduce their radar signature. At least in front, with a noticeable orange section on the lower half of the front of the nose. It can be a hole for a self -education device but also unclear whether the image was somehow edited for security reasons.
< P > Navair also reports that last year's test was the first case when a helicopter platform of the Marine Corps used a weapon system from a tablet device. The Magtab system is usually used by separate marine infantrymen on Earth or in aircraft for communication and data exchange, including coordination of direct aviation support, help planning a route and providing additional data.
~ < P > Magtab can be used to transmit data from external sources to AH-1Z helicopter about goals outside the range that can “see” his onboard sensors.
