(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Lappin - Armored vehicles, once dismissed as relics of 20th century warfare, are today once again treasured assets because they are turning into intelligence-gathering platforms that can reveal the exact location of hostile combatants all around them. Rafael's Trophy active protection system, used heavily during the 2014 conflict with Hamas in Gaza, can intercept missiles and RPGs in mid-air. Yet this is only half the story. The same system can go on the offensive and use the enemy's missile attacks against it. Trophy's radars instantly detect the position of the cell that fired the missile, and the IDF's command and control network can broadcast those coordinates to all friendly forces in the area. That means that an enemy cell that fired on a tank or APC with Trophy will itself become a target in seconds. 2016-08-12 00:00:00Full Article
