In the US, they talked about increasing the lethality of Stinger missiles.

The combat effectiveness of the Stinger man-portable anti-aircraft missile system (MANPAD) missiles is increased due to the use of the Javelin man-portable anti-tank missile system (ATM) launcher. Brent Eastwood, columnist for the American publication 19FortyFive, reported this.

The author recalled that now a modified Javelin installation called the Javelin Light Command Launch Unit (LWCLU) can be used to launch the Stinger, which receives an infrared sight that specifically allows MANPADS to be used at night.

“The LWCLU/Stinger combination is capable of getting target coordinates from other sources. This makes it much more deadly than when using the original Stinger launcher.”says the broadcast.

The author assures that “new LWCLU/Stinger combination will be lighter and smaller”than the original Stinger.
