IAI to Provide Naval version of the HAROP system to an Asian Country

IAI (Israel Aerospace Industries) announced the sale of the naval version of the HAROP loitering munition system to the navy of an Asian country.

Xavier Vavasseur 01 Feb 2021

The news came as part of a larger announcement of a deal valued at over $100 million USD, in which IAI will also supply ROTEM and HAROP (ground version) loitering munitions systems to several countries in Asia.

The Maritime HAROP system provides an operational solution for a range of vessels, from off-shore vessels to fighting frigates in the naval theater. In a complex naval theater, the HAROP system gives mission commanders in a fleet of ships the capability to independently and organically collect intelligence, assess targets and strike. The intelligence gathered by the HAROP is directly integrated in the vessel’s control room and allows for quick, accurate and lethal decision-making. Use of the HAROP on naval platforms is an operational alternative and complementary element to using sea-sea missiles, with a wide range of uses and with optimal cost-efficiency for the navy. The maritime and land combat-proven HAROP provides an operational solution for a range of low and high-intensity conflict scenarios and for anti-terrorism activity. The HAROP is equipped with day/night cameras and has the ability to search, find and attack with maximum precision both static and moving targets, on land or at sea and at a long-range. A strike can take place from any direction and at any angle of attack.
