SpearUAV, a leading system house in AI-based encapsulated weapon systems, introduces the VIPER I (Interceptor), an advanced encapsulated UAS interceptor designed to enhance Top-Attack protection for tactical forces and armored fighting vehicles as well as fixed installations. Built on the core technology of SpearUAV’s VIPER family of loitering munition solutions, the VIPER I effectively counter airborne threats, including hostile UAS, loitering munitions, and other top attackers.
VIPER I is designed for versatile deployment directly on military vehicles, facilitating efficient interception in dynamic battlefield scenarios. It can be launched from the Spear’s Multi Canister Launcher (MCL) without modifications, ensuring seamless integration across various tactical platforms, including dismounted troops and fixed installations. This capability enables continuous aerial protection for maneuvering forces.
Engineered with a low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) footprint, the VIPER I enhances deployment efficiency. It incorporates third-party payloads for precise detection, verification, and neutralization of Top-Attack threats. Featuring automated high-speed maneuvering and advanced AI-driven target tracking, the VIPER I intercepts fast-moving targets while autonomously determining the optimal responses based on real-time battlefield intelligence.
Viper I has been designed for integration with third party’s sensors and warheads, ensuring versatile application across various operational scenarios and utilization of local know-how.
The MCL complements the VIPER I’s functionality by enabling rapid deployment of multiple VIPER family systems from any military platform, even while in motion. This launcher features a customizable configuration that addresses SWaP challenges across various tactical platforms, varying from one to multiple canisters. Viper family integrates with Force Battle Management Systems (C4i), providing tactical units with improved Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) capabilities providing greater lethality and survivability. The MCL’s design enhances the maneuverability and operational pace of forces while minimizing operator exposure and safeguarding crew members within the vehicle.
Yiftach Kleinman, EVP Commercial at SpearUAV, stated: “SpearUAV has recently been recognized as the most promising company in the Israeli Defense Industry. Our focus is on leveraging Israeli hi-tech innovation to enhance warfighter capabilities and survivability. VIPER I exemplifies our commitment to delivering effective encapsulated solutions that meet the evolving challenges faced by maneuvering forces.”
