BAE Systems has advanced the development and international deployment of the Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS), a laser-guided 70mm rocket system launched from various platforms. Originally initiated by the US Army in 2002, the system has been successfully integrated into military operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, with recent tests demonstrating its capabilities in counter-UAS operations. Additionally, Jordan has purchased APKWS, and the US Navy continues to award contracts for its production to meet increasing demand.
