The AIM-120 [a] Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile (AMRAAM) (/ æ m r æ m / AM-ram) is an American beyond-visual-range air-to-air missile capable of all-weather day-and-night operations. It uses active transmit-receive radar guidance instead of semi-active receive-only radar guidance.
First successful test of AIM-120 AMRAAM at the White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico 1982. Early air-to-air missiles used semi-active radar homing guidance, that is the missile used the radiation produced by the launching aircraft to guide it to the target. The latest generation of BVR missiles use a combination of semi-active and active radar.
