FG-6 Flare

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.

Combat-proven record and protection

Elbit Systems MTV flares are in operational use worldwide, including the Israeli Air Force (IAF). The FG-6 flare is fit in form and function to the MJU-7, and it can be ejected from all Western dispensing systems such as ALE 40/47, M-130, WIZARDS, and others. The flare is equipped with a PSM (Pyrotechnic Sequencing Mechanism) to ensure aircraft safety and prevent ignition inside the magazine.
