Munitions Systems

LIZARD™ (Multimedia presentation) is a family of modular guidance kits offering the option of Laser-Seeker (LIZARD2 and LIZARD3) or dual mode (GPS/INS and Laser, LIZARD4) guidance. By converting general purpose bombs into smart munitions, Lizard increases the capability to counter any stationary or moving target, day and night, in all weather conditions. 

SkyStriker is a fully autonomous loitering munitions (LM) system capable of long-range precise tactical strikes. SkyStriker improves situational awareness and survivability by providing direct-fire aerial precision capabilities to maneuvering troops and Special Forces. A cost effective mobile platform, SkyStriker offers quick deployment and ease of operation.

EMA 40 BD BR is a 70mm air to ground rocket similar to the MK 40. It is a double based solid propellant rocket, aerodynamically stabilized by four fins, for use in tactical and training operations against surface targets.

EMA 66 BD BR is a 70mm air to ground rocket similar to MK 66. It is a double based solid propellant rocket, aerodynamically stabilized by three wrap-around retractable fins for use in tactical and training operations against surface targets, able to be launched from helicopters or airplanes. EMA 66 BD BR has a high level thrust and rotation, giving it enhanced stability and precision in the trajectory.

Rocket launcher LA 707 is developed to be used with 70 mm rockets (MK 40, MK 66 and similar) and is available for use with fixed (LA 707A) and rotary-wing(LA 707H) aircraft.
