IAI receives follow-on orders for MRSAM
Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) has signed agreements worth $93 million with the Indian Navy and Cochin Shipyard to provide naval Medium Range Surface-to-Air Missile (MRSAM) systems, the company announced on 30 January.
Under the contracts, IAI will provide complementary systems for the air defence systems (ADS). They include follow up orders for a wide range of maintenance and other services for various sub-systems of IAI’s advanced MSRAM ADS.
Comprised of various advanced systems, including a digital radar, C2 equipment, launchers and interceptors with advanced homing seekers, the MRSAM family provides defence against a wide range of assault air, marine and ground threats.
