This domain covers seventy line items: unguided aircraft rockets, free-fall and guided aerial bombs, guided missiles and loitering munitions, artillery rockets and the vehicles that launch them, gun and rocket pods for helicopters and light aircraft, and four trainer and utility airframes. Entries are arranged by role rather than by calibre. Each record carries the designation where the source publishes one, the masses, dimensions and performance figures given for that model, the fuze or guidance details where they are stated, and the packaging data where the source states it.
Nine line items cover the unguided rockets of this group, in 57 mm, 80 mm and 128 mm. The 57 mm family runs from the high-explosive BR-1-57 and the hollow-charge BR-2-57 through the universal BR-20-57 P1, the illuminating M17, and the inert BR-1-57 V, BR-2-57 V and BR-20-57 V practice versions. Above them sit the 80 mm S-8 KOM and the 128 mm BR-VZ-128-M15. All are unguided, and launcher detail is sparse: the BR-1-57 names tube launchers with open rear end in an L-57 honeycomb pod, and the M17 is fired from 57 mm straight and helical rocket launchers. Warhead type and mass differ from model to model, four of the nine name their fuze, and range or flight-time figures appear where the source publishes them.

An 80 mm unguided aviation rocket with a hollow-charge fragmentation warhead of impact effect, used from aircraft and helicopters against armoured ground targets such as tanks, self-propelled guns and armoured personnel carriers, unarmoured targets such as launchers, radar stations and parked aircraft, and enemy forces.
Nine records cover stores released from an aircraft or an unmanned platform. The ballistic bombs are the FAB-100 M80 and FAB-250 M79, the fragmentation RAB-250 M91, the general purpose vFAB-250-2 and vFAB-1000-4, and the hardened penetration vPRAB-1000-9. Beside them sit the 128 mm PGB-128 gliding bomb, the 80 mm LAB-08 multipurpose bomb and the BNB-015IZ aerodynamic guidance kit, which the source describes as converting 200, 500 and 1000 lb bombs into corrected bombs. Masses and fuze or guidance details are given per record; suspension-lug spacing is published on the six ballistic bombs and on the PGB-128.

Hand-held anti-armour / anti-armor rockets and launchers
Six records cover the man-portable anti-armour line. Three are complete rounds supplied in their own launcher or container: the 64 mm M80 at 3 kg, the 90 mm M79A in a transport container, and the 120 mm M91 at 13 kg with launcher. The 44 mm M80 HEAT shell and the 44 mm M80 hand launcher that fires it hold separate records, as does the 82 mm M72 reactive-cumulative round, which the source lists for the M60 recoilless gun. Among the rounds, stated penetration of homogeneous armour plate runs from 300 mm to at least 700 mm.
Four records sit in this group. RAVEN 145 is a container-launched family of reconnaissance and strike vehicles, quoted at less than 50 kg loaded, with electric, gasoline or turbojet cruise propulsion and warhead options of 145, 165 and 175 mm. The other three are the payloads the source associates with unmanned carriers: the 130 mm M1 high-explosive fragmentation warhead with its M17SP safety-arming mechanism, the 40 mm M25 pre-formed fragmentation bomb with the UTE M25 fuze, and the 90 mm HEDP M25, which the source also lists for a hand-held 90 mm launcher.

PRM-200 is an air-launched programmable target with self-contained guidance. The 128 mm OGANJ and PLAMEN practice rockets reproduce the outer design of the service rockets and hold an inserted barrel, and the 57 mm practice rocket with signal head is the round that barrel launches. None carries a combat warhead.
Air-launched programmable rocket target with self-contained guidance, used as a live-fire target for AD missiles, air-to-air missiles and radar-directed AA artillery.

LASTA TP is the turboprop development, with a 450 hp engine, ejection seats and an optional ordnance payload of 400 kg. SOVA is a single-engine four-seat low-wing aircraft of semi-monocoque metal construction for initial training and pilot selection. HAWK 5 is a five-seat gyroplane whose rotor is always in autorotation.
