RAFAEL’s SPIKE NLOS Air-Deployable Launcher ‒ Firing Test





SPIKE NLOS is a 30 km Precision Guided Missile, part of the 5th generation electro-optical SPIKE Family, operational today in 31 countries worldwide.
The video shows the firing of the SPIKE NLOS missile to above 25 km at various target types and at a range of firing trajectories (both very low and very high) ‒ defined according to the mission, scenario, and target type.

Last year, RAFAEL unveiled a light, modular launcher for the SPIKE NLOS missile, integrated on a light buggy (TOMCAR).
This SPIKE Launcher - only 1350 kg, including 8 rounds - provides armies and Special Forces with a low-weight, maneuverable, precision element that can be easily air-deployed deep into enemy territory and directly to the attack point target (static & mobile) with very high precision, and with no dependence on GPS.
The video was taken last year during the launcher qualification process.
