This
GLATGM ability increases even more the CT-CV Weapon System’s
capability to provide modern armed forces with a fully effective
response to demanding operational challenges. It delivers
immediate, precise and lethal effects against comprehensive
set of targets at short and extended ranges, based on a
balanced combination of conventional and smart tank munitions,
gun-launched missiles and heavy machine guns.
These effects are enhanced through a single auto-loaded
weapon system that allows the selective loading and firing
of multiple ammunition options including gun-launched missiles,
from under armour.
Co-developed with the State Kyiv Design Bureau “Luch”,
the Falarick 105 is a 105 mm calibre missile specifically
designed to be launched from the Cockerill CV gun, itself
a proprietary development by CMI Defence.
With its laser beam guidance system, the Falarick 105 is
able to wipe out fixed & moving armoured targets, helicopters
and fortifications at a distance of 5 kilometres. Its tandem
hollow-charged warhead allows it to destroy targets under
550 mm of armour and behind ERA or their equivalent.
Its name refers to the falarica, a heavy javelin used by
Iberians. Thanks to its long, thin iron head with a narrow
sharp tip, it was an excellent armour-piercing weapon.
