JERUSALEM, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) -- Israel's state-owned defense technology company Rafael Advanced Defense Systems on Wednesday unveiled a new long-range cruise missile equipped with a 1,000-pound warhead and designed to strike high-value targets at extended distances.
The missile, named Super Ice, can be launched from air, land and sea platforms, offering greater operational flexibility, the company said in a statement.
Super Ice joins Rafael's Ice Breaker family of long-range precision-guided cruise missiles. It features autonomous navigation, low-altitude flight, all-weather capability and an advanced guidance system that uses image-matching technology to identify targets.
According to Rafael, the missile provides stand-off strike capabilities, allowing forces to conduct precision strikes without entering heavily defended airspace.
The new missile shares technology, launch systems, and mission-planning infrastructure with the broader Ice Breaker family, enabling seamless integration alongside existing operational systems. ■
