It will be integrated with the cruise missile TM AV - 300 - km range during the stage of testing and certification . It is said that the venture will , for example , enable the Army to integrate the Astros with defense anti - aircraft guns , paving the way for the utilization of common platforms , trucks , parts of electronic sensors and command vehicles . The Astros 2020 will also be equipped with a 180 mm GPS - guided rocket called the SS - AV - 40 with a range of . 30 Astros 2020 systems are to be acquired .
