No escape ZONE: Meet the AIM-120 AMRAAM
The AIM-120 AMRAAM, which stands for Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile, is capable of all-weather, day-and-night operations and has a beyond-visual-range capability. It is scheduled to remain operational beyond 2050.
“The AMRAAM missile is arguably the most sophisticated air-to-air weapon in use today and for good reason. It has to be in order to address the complex threats we’re seeing from our adversaries,” said Paul Ferraro, president of Air Power for Raytheon Missiles & Defense.
