Javelin Missile: BEST Test Launch COMPILATION Video Ever—Including Rare Slow Motion Footage

FGM-148 anti-tank Javelin Missile test/training launch compilation! BEST collection ever - including superb HD slow-motion footage! (Even a little bit of rare slow-mo strike footage too.)

The American designed and made FGM-148 Javelin is generally regarded as the best man-portable anti-tank missile system in the world. Operated by a crew of two (command launch unit and launcher tube), the tactical precision, long-wave infrared seeking Javelin is capable of destroying any main battle tank in existence -- this is achieved via a "top attack" whereby the missile climbs steeply after launch before diving and striking the tank at its most vulnerable point, its upper turret. The system can also of course engage a target directly; including not only land targets but low flying aircraft as well.

This impressive missile can deliver an 8.4 kilogram tandem shaped-charge warhead to a maximum range of 2,500 meters.
