The AGM-65 Maverick is a medium-range air-to-ground missile designed for the close air support role. The AGM- 65 family contains a diverse set of variants and guidance systems, including infrared, electro-optical, and laser guidance. The AGM-65 has a maximum range of around 13 nautical miles. It was first delivered in 1972. A single Maverick can be mounted to an LAU-117 rack. Maverick D replaced the electro-optical guidance with an imaging infrared system which doubled the practical firing distance and allowed for its use at night and during bad weather. A reduced smoke rocket engine was also introduced in this model. It achieved its initial operation capability in 1983.
