TROPHY® APS: Revolutionizing Ground Maneuver Operations
This video is brought to you by RAFAEL
In today’s complex battlefields, rapid advancement and strike capabilities are crucial. TROPHY Active Protection System (APS) delivers this freedom with over 2 million operational hours globally, ensuring crew and vehicle safety with a +90% kill probability. TROPHY influences combat on several levels: crew and vehicle protection, enabling offensive maneuver focus; maneuvers in complex environments; and deployment in previously non-maneuverable areas. Integrating seamlessly with tanks, APCs, and other vehicles, TROPHY is the only APS fielded by NATO, used in systems like the US Army’s Abrams and Israel’s Merkava MBTs.
TROPHY creates a protective bubble, neutralizing threats from recoilless rifles to RPGs in seconds, with minimal risk to personnel and civilians. Its unmatched capabilities include 360⁰ protection, enhanced situational awareness, and reliable threat interception. The system can counter UAVs and detect hostile fire sources, with a new Silent Mode that activates radar only upon threat detection. TROPHY integrates with advanced RAFAEL systems, ensuring cutting-edge defense technology.
