Multi Barrel Loiter Munition (MBLM) System
Loiter Munition (LM) is new generation unmanned aerial platform which are designed to sense & shoot a target with pinpoint accuracy. It is pre-fitted with a warhead & has the capability to loiter over target and strike on confirmation by crashing into it. The current variants of LM can be launched by Rail/ Canister/ VTOL platforms. In case MBLM is developed to be launched from existing platform i.e Artillery Rocket Systems (GRAD/PINAKA/ SMERCH), it will enable employment without need of any manpower addition. Further, it will enable mass employment thereby enhancing its effectiveness multifold.
The challenge envisages development of following system/ sub-system: -
• Multi Barrel Launch System, compatible with GRAD/ PINAKA/ SMERCH platforms
• Capability to launch 10 or more LM in salvo mode
(to be specified by Developing Agency)
• Engine and propulsion system
• High speed air frame with actuators & cable harness
• On board flight control computer with instruments/
sensors.
• Long range communication system with data immunity and integrity.
• Warhead and fuse
• Anti-jammer GPS/ EO-IR seeker with vision guidance.
• Ground Control Station (Software & Hardware) with capability to control multiple LMs together.
• Ground based Simulator.
• Any other component/ sub-component deemed essential by the developing agency
