Trophy-MV
The Trophy-MV offers the same hard kill capabilities as the Trophy-HV and includes built-in soft kill capabilities as well.
The Trophy-MV (previously Trophy II) is at TRL 7 and the first prototype is currently undergoing enhanced field testing.
Trophy-MV a 450kg APS, for light - and medium-weight (10-30 ton) vehicles.
Trophy-LV
This active protection hard kill system for light armored vehicles utilizes the same superior operating principles as the
Trophy-HV and Trophy-MV at a fraction of the weight. Trophy-LV’s high kill probability against advanced threats, including
the most sophisticated shoulder-launched AT rocket propelled grenades, makes it a significant force-multiplier at shorter
ranges on the modern battlefield.
The Trophy-LV’s dimensions are specially designed for easy integration and installation onto smaller platforms without
impairing system performance. This ensures 360º protection including the vehicle’s windows and doors with minimal
risk of collateral damage. The Trophy-LV is an all-round efficient, affordable, and cost-effective solution that is currently
undergoing field testing in a variety of operational scenarios.
Operational Concept
Ŷ Radar identifies and tracks incoming threat/s and delivers the exact threat launching point to a battle management
system or weapon station
Ŷ The computer identifies the threat, determines whether it will hit the vehicle, and if so
Ŷ A ballistic cover opens
Ŷ A countermeasure head slews to the proper location
Ŷ The computer continues to track, acquire, and plot the best intercept solution
Ŷ The countermeasure is launched and neutralizes the threat
The Trophy systems have a very high kill probability and testing has shown them to be successful against all known CE
threats (RPG, ATGM, tank-fired CE, etc.) The systems’ average collateral damage is estimated at a <1% chance of a
dismounted soldier being injured by Trophy or an incoming threat.
