The
programmable 2P ammunition is based on the proven and effective programmable
3P programmable ammunition. It was developed to meet customer requirements
identified during international missions to allow for operation at shorter
distances with minimum collateral damage. The 2P ammunition can be programmed
in different function modes providing optimized effect against a wide
range of targets.
“This order further demonstrates that BAE Systems
is trusted to develop and provide new, high-tech products to meet customer

we have a new member in our product portfolio.” |
