XM 30 rocket

quote The guided MLRS rocket is being developed under an international cooperative program with the united states, united kingdom, Italy, Germany, and I regrett to say France LOL. Gmrls will have a GPS aided inertial guided system intergrated into the rocket nose. Additionally small canards on the guided rocket nose will add basic maneuverability to further enhance accuracy of the system.
