Army Tactical Missile System
The Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) is a type of guided missile designed for the U.S. Army that can hit targets at long ranges, typically up to 300 kilometers (about 186 miles). It is launched from mobile platforms, allowing flexibility in deployment. ATACMS is primarily used for precision strikes against enemy forces, artillery, and infrastructure. Its capabilities enhance battlefield effectiveness by providing quick, accurate firepower, helping to support ground troops while minimizing collateral damage. The system plays a crucial role in modern warfare by integrating advanced technology to improve targeting and combat efficiency.
