Variants
SP HVM: Carried on an Alvis Stormer AFV with a roof mounted eight round launcher
with internal stowage for a further 12 missiles.
LML: Fired from a Lightweight Multiple Launcher (LML) which holds three missiles
ready for firing and can be used as either a stationary launch unit or mounted
on a light vehicle such as a Land Rover or HMMWV (Humvee). This practice was
first used with the Javelin system.
MANPADS: man-portable, fired from the operator's shoulder.
ATASK (Air To Air Starstreak): Fired from a helicopter. This was developed in
combination with McDonnell-Douglas and Lockheed-Martin electronics between 1995
and 1998 specifically for use with the AH-64 Apache. It has yet to enter
service.
Seastreak: Two versions of a naval mounting have been demonstrated—a one-man
mount similar to the LML but carrying a total of six missiles, and a close in
weapon system mounting holding 24 missiles.
