Description
RB-75T is a licensed copy made by Swedish Air Force of AGM-65G with a downgraded seeker
Vehicles equipped with this weapon
General info
RB 75T is a Licenced copy of AGM65G, but the difference is that, it uses seeker of AGM-65A
and locks targets from 6km to 7km.
Effective damage
RB-75T is filled with the same explosive type and formula, used as a filler in AGM-65G.
PBXN-110 and SAP-HE(Semi Armour Piercing - High Explosive.
Comparison with analogues
The AGM-65G is just a better and elder brother of RB-75T, AGM-65G uses better seeker + have Thermal vision.
Usage in battles
RB-75T is mainly used as an effective medium to close range Air-to-Ground missile in Ground battles,
that has ability to track moving targets as well as static targets.
Pros and cons
Summarise and briefly evaluate the weaponry in terms of its characteristics and combat effectiveness. Mark pros and cons as a list.
Pros:
Can lock moving targets
Good SAP-HE Filler (PBXN-110)
Cons:
No thermal (unlike AGM-65G)
Can not lock(Track) above 7km range unlike AGM-65G which can lock(Track) from 10km
Can not lock targets in night battles
History
RB 75, imported AGM-65A Maverick, a TV-guided, fire-and-forget air-to-surface missile. Used both in AGM and AShM roles. Carried by the AJ 37 Viggen and the later AJS 37 variants.
The Maverick's development history began in 1965, when the United States Air Force (USAF) began a program to develop a replacement to the AGM-12 Bullpup. With a range of 8.8 nmi (16.3 km), the radio-guided Bullpup was introduced in 1959 and was considered a "silver bullet" by operators. However, the launch aircraft was required to fly straight towards the target during the missile's flight instead of performing evasive maneuvers, thus endangering itself. Even when it hit, the small 250 lb (110 kg) warhead was only useful against small targets like bunkers; when used against larger targets like the Thanh Hóa Bridge it did little more than char the structure. The USAF began a series of projects to replace Bullpup, both larger versions of Bullpup, models C and D, as well as a series of Bullpup adaptations offering fire-and-forget guidance. Among the latter were the AGM-83 Bulldog, AGM-79 Blue Eye and AGM-80 Viper.
The AGM-65 Maverick is an air-to-ground missile (AGM) designed for close air support. It is the most widely produced precision-guided missile in the Western world, and is effective against a wide range of tactical targets, including armor, air defenses, ships, ground transportation and fuel storage facilities.
Development began in 1966 at Hughes Aircraft Company as the first missile to use an electronic contrast seeker. It entered service with the United States Air Force in August 1972. Since then, it has been exported to more than 30 countries and is certified on 25 aircraft. The Maverick served during the Vietnam, Yom Kippur, Iran–Iraq, and Persian Gulf Wars, along with other smaller conflicts, destroying enemy forces and installations with varying degrees of success.
