US Army fields Lightweight Command Launch Unit (LWCLU) for Javelin

The US Army has received the first batch of the new LWCLU for the Javelin ATGM, a 30% smaller and 25% lighter launcher with upgraded IR tech and roughly doubled target detection/recognition range. This is a notable modernization of a widely used infantry anti-armor system that can improve dismounted and vehicle-mounted engagement effectiveness, especially in low-light conditions.
