Javelin missileA Lockheed MartinRaytheon joint venture and Tata Power have signed a letter of intent to explore joint development and production of the Javelin anti-tank guided missile system.

Under the agreement, Javelin Joint Venture will work with Tata Power’s strategic engineering division to craft a strategy to jointly build the missile as well as to integrate platform mounts in an effort to help address India’s weapon requirements for ground combat vehicle, dismounted and rotorcraft operations, Raytheon said Wednesday.

John Halvey, JJV president at Raytheon’s missile systems segment, said the partnership aims to extend the missile technology to new customers, applications and platforms as well as supports the Make in India project.

“The combat-proven Javelin continues to fulfill a critical precision-strike role with our domestic and international partners,” said Rich Benton, JJV vice president and Javelin program director at Lockheed’s missiles and fire control segment.

The LOI also creates a framework for future technological cooperation between the two parties, Raytheon added.

Javelin missiles have been implemented by the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps and have been approved for sale to  15 foreign military customers.
