AGM-69 SRAM vs M-45

Overview

The AGM-69 SRAM and the M-45 are both Ballistic missiles.

The M-45 has a range of 6,000 km β€” 30:1 the AGM-69 SRAM's 200 km. The AGM-69 SRAM reaches 4,322 km/h vs 18,500 km/h for the M-45. Launch weight is 1,010 kg for the AGM-69 SRAM vs 35,000 kg for the M-45. The AGM-69 SRAM uses Inertial measurement unit and radar altimeter guidance, while the M-45 relies on Inertial plus computer payload control.

The AGM-69 SRAM has been produced in 1,500 units vs 192 for the M-45. The AGM-69 SRAM entered service 24 years before the M-45 (1972 vs 1996).

American ballistic missile, entered service in 1972, uses inertial measurement unit and radar altimeter guidance.
