[QUOTE="Kiltonge, post: 269089, member: 9698"] A few notes on Javelot from the DTIC archives: First, interesting to read that USA was involved with Javelot development: [quote] The French Javelot, a short-range, low-altitude, surface-to-air, multiple-rocket antiaircraft weapon, and the FRG Fiakpanzer Gepard, a twin-35 mm antiaircraft gun system, are both interesting candidates for an offset package. The United States is working with France in developing the Javelot, and we are testing the Gepard. [/quote] http://www.dtic.mil/get-tr-doc/pdf?AD=ADA041639 Desired dispersion of Javelot: [quote]a. Javelot, which is reported to have the objective of achieving RAP dispersions competitive to gun fired unboosted projectiles, should be critically observed in development and demonstration firings to determine the feasibility and possible difficulties in achieving these objectives.
