Share

BQM-177i

The BQM-177i is the international variant of the US Navy’s newest and most advanced Sub-Sonic Aerial Target (SSAT). With an advanced aerodynamic design and unmatched performance capabilities, the BQM-177i is the world’s best choice for highly-dynamic, high sub-sonic, sea-skimming anti-ship cruise missile threat emulation, and provides a formidable target for live-fire training scenarios.

Capable of speeds in excess of 0.95 Mach, shipboard launch, and a sea-skimming altitude as low as 3.1 meters, the BQM-177i has no equal when it comes to delivering realistic anti-ship missile threat emulation.

This highly-versatile aerial target supports various mission requirements by carrying a wide array of internal and external payloads including scoring, Identification Friend-or-Foe (IFF), passive and active RF augmentation; infrared (IR) augmentation (fixed flares, plume pods), chaff and flare dispensing; and tow targets.
