Countering Evolving Threats
Nano SPEAR is a highly advanced, expendable RF decoy designed as a countermeasure to RF-guided air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles and other threats faced in modern battlespaces. This ultra-smart decoy deceptively lures away hostile radar guided missiles, providing a powerful layer of aircraft protection. The system complements the aircraft’s existing EW system and operates in coordination with it – or operates as a standalone in the absence of an EW System – ensuring mission success and a safe return of platform and aircrew.
Key Benefits
Nano SPEAR uses the aircraft’s existing dispensing system, but once launched, acts independently.
Simple to operate with either manual or automatic dispense modes, Nano SPEAR is Form Fit (FF) to standard MJU7/FG-6 2x1x8 expendables and can be easily integrated with common countermeasure dispensing systems (CMDS) such as AN/ALE-
40/47 and M-130.
The system requires no change to the aircraft and has a multi-year shelf-life.
