IAI’s maritime operations concentrate on Maritime Situational Awareness (MSA), Offensive and Defensive Weapon Systems, and Autonomous Technologies. MSA, fundamental for maritime sovereignty and naval operations, is integral to IAI’s Naval Combat Suites solutions.
IAI’s prowess is evident in the Israel Navy Sa’ar 6 Corvette, where the company was selected to integrate its radars, offensive and defensive weapons, and other capabilities to meet diverse naval requirements while minimizing development risks and maintaining affordability.
IAI’s loitering missiles prove highly effective weapons for selective actionable response by providing the ability to collect intel and assess the situation at the target, select an impact point, and even abort an attack if the conditions demand such action. IAI offers several loitering weapons, from the larger EO-guided HAROP to the smaller Mini Harpy, utilizing a unique, multi-spectral sensor (EO/RF) to detect and locate targets at sea passively.
The Mini Harop is a tactical, low-cost loitering munition designed to provide small ground units and special operations forces with significant situational awareness and firepower in a compact envelope. Stored, transported and launched from a sealed canister, as many as 12-16 Mini Harop units can be carried on a small vehicle and launched upon request. The Mini Harop is easily operated and controlled from a tablet-sized electronic control panel with a tactical low-power data link to the loitering munition.
The HAROP is a standoff loitering attack weapon system designed to locate and precisely attack targets. The HAROP loitering missile (LM) type platform which serves as an Electro-Optically guided attack weapon. HAROP LMs are launched from ground-based launchers and controlled via a two-way data link for full man-in-the-loop operation.
