Raytheon says the TOW EagleFire is simpler to maintain and more reliable, it will be capable of firing both the wire-guided and wireless radio frequency missiles.

Other features include: integrated day-and-night sight with range-finding capability; ergonomic handgrips and extensive Built-in-Test capability.

A nine-hour lithium-ion power source gives the system a prolong silent watch capability.
