Description
The Bullpup guided missile system was used with attack type aircraft in support of ground troops and for use against small tactical targets.
The Bullpup was a massive type warhead, air-to-surface, that was carried by a variety of Naval aircraft.
The warhead consisted of a cylindrical agent container with a central burster for explosive dissemination and was housed in the missile center section. It was interchangeable with other warheads that were used with the Bullpup missile. A relatively thick casing of mild steel was used, which could withstand severe handling loads. Ballast was necessary to obtain the correct weight. The missile was radio controlled to the target and could be used against small crafts, tanks, vehicles, and buildings.
