no interference even in “extreme conditions”. The sources
said that the Dual seeker will ensure high sensitivity under
all weather conditions and immunity to deception and
countermeasures. The 4.60 meters long Stunner, uses a
multi-pulse rocket motor.
One very good example to Rafael’s capability to develop
advanced weapon system is the “Spice” family of smart
bombs. The Israeli Airforce (IAF) is equipping its fighter
fleet with the New Rafael Spice 250 gliding bombs. The
partial specifics of that advanced weapon systems have
been recently unveiled.
The Spice’s deployable wings allow an aircraft to carry
more bombs. The weapon is navigated by a GPS/INS
Satellite/Inertial Navigation system. According to RAFAEL,
the Spice 250 achieves an extended standoff range of up
to 100 kilometers using its deployable wings.
Spice 250 enables impact point update after release,
using its communication module. In addition, it provides
Battle Damage Indication (BDI) capability, by transmitting
the target image just before hit.
INNOCON
Innocon, a small UAS manufacturer, has been developing
and manufacturing Unmanned Air System (UAS) ranging
fromMicro UAS weighing 6 Kg., to a 1,000 Kg full size UASs,
equipped with the company’s proprietary Command &
Control Systems for UAS. The company delivers complete
systems or major sub-systems.
Innocon’s uses its very advanced Command & Control
technology, to develop very advanced UASs. The
combination of on-board/ground computers with the
proprietary, modular software enables to create the ability
to employ small, low-cost UAV for missions that usually
would require much larger and more costly aircraft.
Elbit Systems Hermes-90 UAV is based on a design of
Innocon.
Innocon is a privately held company; it is currently
evaluating some investment and cooperation proposals
that will leverage the present capabilities into becoming
a significant factor in the very large, and steadily growing,
world UAS market.
Blue Bird
BlueBird is another small but interestingUASmanufacturer.
The company specializes in the design, development and
production of tactical UAS and peripheral equipment.
BlueBird solutions are specially designed to deal with
contemporary homeland security (HLS) challenges. With
a wide spectrum of UAS platforms, all operating from a
unified, intuitive and friendly Ground Control Station,
BlueBird’s rapidly deployed UAS are cost-effectively and
reliably performing all HLS missions, in all weather and
without any terrain limitations.
BlueBird has identified the field of real-time intelligence
generated from small and smart UAV, as a critical
requirement in modern homeland security and civilian
applications, and presented to the market a spectrum
of advanced solutions. The MicroB – A Micro UAS that
provides features previously found only in larger UAS
(persistent surveillance, digital communication), but with
all the advantages of a smaller UAS. The SpyLite – A Mini
UAV that delivers extended performance envelope, of 4
hours mission time, ability to fly in 36,000ft and impressive
mission range of 60Km.The Boomerang – A Mini UAV that
provides Tactical UAS capabilities (Day and Night payload
simultaneously and 10 hours mission time).
