(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - The U.S. Army has chosen Israel Military Industries' Iron Fist as an active protection system for its armored personnel carriers. The system to be installed on APC rooftops will use a combination of a radar and an electro-optical sensor to detect and intercept a range of incoming missiles and rocket-propelled grenades, IMI corporate vice president of marketing Avinoam Zafir said. The system can jam threats from missiles that have advanced guidance systems and cause them to fall harmlessly to the ground. "Dumb" weapons, such as RPGs, are destroyed using interceptors, small warheads that explode near the incoming threat, destroying it with a shock wave at a safe distance from the defended APC.2016-06-07 00:00:00Full Article
