AQM-128

In mid-1983, the U.S. Navy had a requirement for an air-launched, non-recoverable supersonic subscale aerial target with a pre-programmed flight profile. The designation YAQM-128A was formally approved for this project in January 1984. However, the YAQM-128A program was apparently very short-lived, because the designation was officially cancelled in April 1984. It can be assumed that the project did not result in any specific contractor designs.

Specifications

The AQM-128 project was cancelled before any design work was completed.
