EXCALIBUR 155MM PRECISION GUIDED EXTENDED RANGE ARTILERY PROJECTILE.

EXCALIBUR 155MM PGERAP.
Excalibur -- precision, autonomously guided, long-range artillery system. Successfully fielded in 2007, Excalibur is the next generation family of projectiles for the U.S. Army and Marine Corps artillery. Excalibur is a 155mm precision-guided artillery round with extended range. Using GPS precision guidance technology, it can provide accurate, first round fire-for-effect capability in an urban setting. Additionally, Excalibur has very accurate terminal guidance, resulting in low collateral damage and the capability to be employed in very close proximity to friendly troops. Another feature allowing Excalibur to be employed in close terrain is the steep terminal trajectory. The trajectory ensures the desired impact in a cluttered, highly obstructed battlefield. Raytheon, in cooperation with Bofors Defence, is dedicated to arming the warfighter with the best precision weapons and capabilities available.
