The RGB-60 (Rocket Guided Bomb Model 60) is an Anti-Submarine weapon with a range og 5,700-6,000 m that can function to depths of 500m. RGB-60 rockets carry unguided depth charges. Rocket RGB-60 is used against underwater targets (i.e. Submarines, Torpedoes etc.) This rocket is fired from A/s Rocket Launcher RBU-6000 (Russian launcher) and Indigenous launcher fitted on-board platforms. The rocket can be fired in Single or Salvo Mode depending upon the tactical requirements. The rocket is fitted with Electronics Fuze for functioning in DA (Direct Action) and SD/Time mode. Electronics Fuze allows the Rocket to home in on targets at depths of upto 1,000 metres (3300 ft). It can also be used against the torpedoes also.
