The missile uses a new kind of rocket engine, which controls flight via thrust vectoring to compensate for the lack of canards. Compared to the AAM-5, it has superior aerodynamic control and reduced air resistance, and boasts a range increase of 15 kilometers. The missile has very high accuracy, which is augmented by a directional warhead with an active laser fuze. As most combat launches result in a sucessful hit, it has been said that the warhead and fuze could be removed to reduce manufacturing costs.
