The Enforcer Missile System by MBDA offers a combination of mobility, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness, aiming to enhance the capability of soldiers on the battlefield. This system was developed in response to the operational experiences of international armed forces, highlighting a demand for lightweight precision weapons that can be used from a safe distance. Such weapons are especially valuable for infantry, special forces, and special operations forces across various services.

Enforcer is a shoulder-launched guided weapon system, designed to precisely strike a wide range of targets, extending beyond the range of traditional unguided weapons. Its operational advantages are numerous. The system boasts a fully operational range of over 2,000 meters, is lightweight and can be operated by a single soldier. Additionally, it can be used passively 24/7, including in confined spaces.

The precision of the Enforcer allows it to effectively engage both static and moving targets. It can defeat lightly armored and unarmored targets and has an airburst capability for striking targets hidden behind cover.

Initially designed for infantry soldiers, its lightweight and ease of use make it suitable for a variety of forces and applications, such as self-protection of ground assets, vehicles, and naval platforms. Its modular design facilitates spiral development, enabling adaptations for anti-armor configurations and air-to-ground applications, thus broadening its capability spectrum.

The Enforcer system has been selected by the German Armed Forces to bridge the gap between unguided rockets and anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). The Enforcer features a missile weight of less than 7 kg, a length of less than one meter, and a diameter of 90 mm. Its technical characteristics include Lock-on-Before-Launch (LOAL) and Fire-and-Forget (F&F) capabilities, as well as a multi-effect warhead.

In summary, MBDA's Enforcer missile system is a state-of-the-art weapon, offering advanced capabilities for infantry forces. Its precision, range, and flexibility make it a notable addition to military arsenals.
