Description

The shoulder-launched PLX-2M combines optical and electronic targeting with guided ordnance selected for the assigned target. Anti-armor, anti-air, and demolition missiles allow a trained team to threaten systems beyond the reach of infantry blasters. The launcher is normally supported by an ammunition bearer and local security personnel.
