MTV flares against IR heat-seeking missiles
Elbit Systems MTV flares protect aircraft against infrared (IR) heat-seeking missiles.
The flares are used on a wide range of aircraft and helicopters against the threat of air-to-air and surface-to-air heat-seeking missiles.
FG-1 is a unique, small-size flare designed to provide protection and enhanced survivability for low signature aircraft with a limited payload, such as light helicopters and UAVs, against advanced threats. Featuring excellent high energetic properties, the flare effectively defeats heat-seeking threats.
Combat-proven record and protection
Elbit Systems MTV flares are in operational use worldwide, including the Israeli Air Force (IAF). Reliable and effective, FG-1 is fully compatible in fit to all Western dispensing systems such as ALE 40/47 and WIZARDS after installing the corresponding dispenser.
