Rafael Advanced Systems is showcasing its Trophy-LV active protection systems at MSPO 2016. The Trophy-LV is an active protection hard kill system especially designed for light armored vehicles. 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 is a situational awareness and active protection hard kill system that operates in three major stages: Threat detection followed by hard kill countermeasure activation and threat neutralization. The neutralization process takes place only if the threat is about to hit the platform.
The system's dimensions are specially designed for easy integration and installation onto smaller platforms without impairing system performance. This ensures 360° 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 1. Radar identifies and tracks incoming threat/s and delivers the exact threat launching point to a battle management system or weapon station. 2. The computer identifies the threat, determines whether it will hit the vehicle, and if so: 3. A ballistic cover opens. 4. A countermeasure head slews to the proper location. 5. The computer continues to track, acquire, and plot the best intercept solution. 6. 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. |
