Gunner - Missile System at The British Army

Description

• Learn how to fire the high-powered armoured rocket launcher that has a crucial impact in battles.
• Travel, make friends and take qualifications, too.
• You’re on the battlefield with your team of three.
• Together, you use an armoured rocket launcher to fire high-powered missiles at targets up to 50 miles away.
• The rockets travel at 1,200 mph and are very accurate.
• First-class training teaches you to use the Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System, but you’ll learn much more than that.
• You’ll also get to take qualifications and gain new skills, building a great CV. With sports, worldwide travel and Adventurous Training, too, there’s action plus an exciting future.
• The Royal Artillery is the heart of the action - everywhere across the battlefield - providing the British Army with its eyes, ears and firepower.
• Using high-tech surveillance devices and uncrewed aircraft, the Royal Artillery finds the enemy.
• We then monitor them before striking decisively. We do this by co-ordinated use of our guns, rockets and missiles, the Army’s attack helicopters and other weapons, including fast jets and even the guns of Royal Navy ships.
