The AGM-65 Maverick is a family of air-to-surface missiles developed by the United States. It is designed to be launched from aircraft and is capable of engaging a wide range of targets, including armored vehicles, fortifications, and ships. The Maverick is known for its versatility and has been used in various military conflicts, including the Gulf War, the Iraq War, and the War in Afghanistan. It is available in several variants, including the AGM-65A, AGM-65B, AGM-65D, and AGM-65E, each with different capabilities and ranges. The missile is guided by a laser designator or semi-active laser homing system, which allows it to lock onto and destroy targets with high precision.
