Designation: JRKK-G
It is designed to destroy enemy live forces, armor, and other targets at ranges of 5 to 16.2 km using submunitions. A single container warhead with a nose-timing fuze ejects 50 cumulative-charge and 6 incendiary bombs over the target area. One 0.275 kg cumulative fragmentation bomb achieves a penetrating effect of 120-140 mm of homogeneous armour. Each cumulative fragmentation bomb contains an igniter which ensures the self-destruction of the bomb after 32 seconds from its deployment.
122 mm uniform AGÁT rocket container set consists of:
- TM 120U time fuze
- container warhead with 50 pcs of cumulative-shrapnel bombs and 6 pcs of incendiary bombs
- RM-GRAD rocket motor
The set was introduced into the armament of the Army of the Slovak Republic on 04.09.1996 on the basis of the Decision No. 076/8-14.
