 ===== AGM-179A JAGM =====
->The **AGM-179 Joint Air-to-Ground Missile** (**JAGM**) is an American military program to develop an air-to-surface missile, to replace the current air-launched BGM-71 TOW, AGM-114 Hellfire, and AGM-65 Maverick missiles<sup>.</sup> The U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps collectively plan to buy tens of thousands of JAGMs. Despite the name of the missile, it is planned to also be launched from ground launchers and boats.

JAGM will share basically the same objectives and technologies as the JCM, but will be developed over a longer time scale.\\ The JAGM has the same form factor as the Hellfire missile which it replaces and is produced on the same production line. The primary increase in capability over the Hellfire is the dual-mode seeker which incorporates both laser designation and millimeter wave radar for target acquisition; the Hellfire missile had these seekers in separate missile variants.

+===== Quicklook: Guidence =====
+PLEASE NOTE: This is just for Arma3. The game engine doesn't natively support all the Target and Guidence options in the real world so we have to compromise. This means twisting the various real-world options to fit
