The BGM-71 TOW ("Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided") is an anti-tank missile.
First produced in 1970, the TOW is one of the most widely used anti-tank guided missiles.
Initially developed by Hughes Aircraft between 1963 and 1968, the XBGM-71A was designed for both ground and heli-borne applications. In 1997, Raytheon Co. purchased Hughes Electronics from General Motors Corporation, so development and production of TOW systems now comes under the Raytheon brand. The BGM-71 TOW wire-guided heavy anti-tank missile is produced by Raytheon Systems Company. The weapon is used in anti-armor, anti-bunker, anti-fortification and anti-amphibious landing roles. The TOW is in service with over 45 militaries and is integrated on over 15,000 ground, vehicle and helicopter platforms worldwide.
In its basic infantry form, the system comprises a missile in a sealed tube which is clipped to a launch tube prior to use. When required, the missile tube is attached to the rear of the launch tube, the target sighted and the missile fired. The launch, or "kick", motor (booster) ejects the missile from the launch tube, at which point four wings indexed at 45 degrees just forward of the booster nozzles spring open forwards, four tail control surfaces flip open rearwards, and sustained propulsion is subsequently provided by the flight motor (sustainer) which fires through lateral nozzles amidships and propels the missile to the target. An optical sensor on the sight continuously monitors the position of a light source on the missile relative to the line-of-sight, and then corrects the trajectory of the missile by generating electrical signals that are passed down two wires to command the control surface actuators. After launch, the operator simply has to keep the cross-hairs of his sight pointing at the target, and the guidance system will automatically transmit corrective commands to the missile through the wire.

Incredible footage captured with high speed cameras showing what a TOW missile can do to a fully loaded T-72. In slow motion you can see exactly when the blast reaches the fuel and munitions on board. This particular missile is a TOW 2B Aero which detonates when it is directly over its target, firing an explosively formed penetrator shaped charge into its target.

A video published online by a Syrian rebel group shows what appears to be a direct hit by a US-made BGM-71 TOW on the turret of a Russia-supplied T-90 tank of the Syrian Army The video is one of a multitude of instances of the use of TOW missiles by rebels in Syria, but it may be the first time the anti-tank weapon was used against the advanced T-90 main battle tank. The results of the attack are significantly less spectacular than in many videos showing direct hits on older armor like the T-72 used by the Syrian Army. A TOW usually devastates its target after a direct hit, causing ammo to explode and killing the crew.

24th of November 2015, Jabal al-Turkman, NW Syria, near the Turkish border. After a Turkish F-16 fighter shot down a Russian Sukhoï Su-24, Russian forces tried to rescue the aircrew. As a Russian Mi-8 helicopter stood on the ground for some reason, a TOW team from the 1st Coastal Division, Free Syrian Army, came in and destroyed it, killing one Russian marine.

A Battlefield 4 attack helicopter gameplay video on PS4 using the attack helicopter solo on Dragon Pass, racking in 56 kills using the AH-1Z Viper. I also pull off some great shots with the TOW missile and TV missile! I take to one of my favorite attack chopper maps in BF4, Dragon Pass, one of BF4's China Rising maps. Dragon Pass is a very fun map for to fly the attack helicopter on even with all the anti-air. Dragon Pass has several key areas of cover the attack helicopter can utilize, more so on the US faction to hide from its threats such as the MAA or other locks. I don't usually use the attack helicopter like this but it is always fun to run solo every now and again. Using the attack chopper like this forces you to utilize a different set of tactics seeing as you have no dedicated g...
