Cannon-launched guided projectile
Cannon-launched guided projectiles[1] are precision-guided munitions launched by howitzers, mortars, tank guns, and naval guns. Cannon Launched Guided Projectiles commonly referred to by the abbreviation CLGP are intended to supplement and not supplant conventional rounds, providing additional accuracy when needed. For example, the INVAR missile system on the T-90 MBT.
