TV guided missile in production New York Times Service

Maverick, an air launched missile guided to surface targets by a nose camera, has begun production under a 69.9 million contract and will reach the Air Force by late next year. If successful, its deployment on fighters in West Germany and Britain could offset NATO's tank inferiority in Europe. The Hughes Aircraft Missile can strike tanks bridges radar sites and infantry fortifications while increasing pilot safety by allowing the pilot to retreat while the missile steers itself to the target. The nose camera transmits a target image to the pilot as cross hairs are centered and the missile is launched with its eye fixed on the target until impact.
