Description
The MAM-C is a laser-guided smart micro munition developed for unmanned aerial vehicles, light attack aircraft, and air-to-ground missions on low-payload-capacity platforms. The munition is based on the Cirit system.
The munition engages both stationary and moving targets using a semi-active laser seeker. Warhead options consist of a multi-purpose warhead, which provides blast fragmentation, incendiary, and armor-piercing capabilities, and a high-explosive blast fragmentation warhead. The system is integrated on platforms such as the Bayraktar Akıncı, Bayraktar TB2, TAI Aksungur, TAI Anka, TAI Hürkuş, and Vestel Karayel.
The MAM-C is operated by Albania, Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Croatia, Kuwait, Libya, Morocco, Mali, Pakistan, Poland, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Turkey, and Ukraine. The munition has been deployed in combat during Operation Euphrates Shield, Operation Olive Branch, Operation Spring Shield, Operation Claw, the 2019 Turkish offensive into north-eastern Syria, the Second Nagorno-Karabakh War, the Central Libya offensive, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Tigray War, and the Mali War.
