Rafael's SPIKE SR Shoulder-Launched Guided Missile Advances Toward U.S. Qualification for Dismounted Forces
Rafael's SPIKE SR shoulder-launched guided missile is advancing toward US military qualification for dismounted infantry forces, according to Army Recognition. The SPIKE SR is a short-range, man-portable anti-tank guided missile designed for individual soldiers and small teams, and its progression through the US qualification process could open a significant new market for the Israeli weapon. Qualification would position the system to compete for US Army and Marine Corps programmes seeking a lightweight guided anti-armour capability for dismounted operations.
