Missile Systems

DIM-3 (Drone Interceptor Missile 3”) Harpax (derived from Greek mythology, Harpies were swift, agile, winged creatures known for accurately snatching their prey) is a family of supersonic, tri-mode short-range surface-to-air, air-to-air, or air-to-ground missiles that provides neutralization of airborne Unmanned Systems, or ground targets. The missiles have full day/night capability and employ a passive infrared target acquisition system, laser guidance, proportional navigational guidance, a closed-loop position servo Fin Actuation Unit (FAU), and an Active Optical Target Detector (AOTD).

The Propulsion/Steering Section consists of a solid-propellant Rocket Motor that propels the missile and incorporates a manual SAFE-ARM selector assembly, a FAU to activate four control fins, mounted in line with four forward mounted fixed wings that provide aerodynamic lift and stability, and a Jet Vane Control that provides enhanced maneuverability by deflecting rocket motor thrust to aid in turning.

DIM-3 Harpax missiles are available in several models and configurations.

The DIM-3 Harpax missile family is a first of its kind, designed to be low-cost, low-maintenance, multi-mode kill-solution against Unmanned Aerial Systems, as well as HVGT (High Value Ground Targets).
