Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile

An Advanced Medium Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM) is a sophisticated weapon carried by fighter jets to target and destroy enemy aircraft from a distance. It combines radar guidance, which actively tracks targets, with onboard systems that improve accuracy and responsiveness. Designed for quick response and high precision, AMRAAMs can engage multiple targets at medium ranges, enhancing a jet's combat effectiveness. They are key components of modern air defense, enabling pilots to detect, lock onto, and intercept threats proactively while staying outside the reach of enemy weapons.
