רפא"ל פיתחה מערכת ניהוג לרקטות 122 מ"מ גראד
רפא"ל פיתחה מערכת ניהוג שניתן להתקין על רקטות 122 מ"מ מדגם "גארד" שהופכות אותן לרקטות מדוייקות.
רפא"ל פיתחה מערכת ניהוג להתקנה על רקטות 122 מ"מ מדגם "גארד" רוסיות שהופכות אותן מרקטות ללא ניהוג לרקטות עם ניהוג ויכולת פגיעה במטרה נייחת וגם במטרה ניידת. רפא"ל מקווה שפיתוח נוסף יוכל להפוך רקטות נוספות לרקטות מדוייקות. וזה מה שנכתב על המערכת:
Israeli defense contractor Rafael is working on an add-on upgrade Electro-Optical Precision Integration Kit, or EPIK, that could turn any Soviet-standard 122mm Grad artillery rocket into package, known as the a precision-guided round capable of hitting stationary or moving targets. The company says that it hopes to further develop the system to work with other unguided surface-to-surface weapons, potentially offering a relatively simple and low-cost way for military forces around the world to significantly expand their longer-range precision fire support capabilities.
Jane’s 360 was first to report on the EPIK development earlier in May 2018. Rafael said it had waited until it reached the technology demonstration phase of the program, which came after the test firing of multiple experimental rockets equipped with the guidance system, to disclose the project. The Israeli government-owned company did not say if it had any prospective customers lined up already or when it expected the first production rounds would be available.
EPIK "Electro-Optical Precision Integration Kit” consists of a multi-mode sensor package and moving control surfaces that attach to the front of the rocket. It has infrared and laser sensors and an inertial navigation system (INS) with embedded GPS, which allows the round to engage a wide variety of targets, including moving vehicles.
Rafael did not specifically say whether or not the complete weapon system had a man-in-the-loop targeting capability, but it is a possibility. The guidance system is a derivative of the systems the company developed for SPICE – standing for Smart, Precise Impact, Cost-Effective – a family of precision-guided aerial bombs, which has this capability.
