MBDA enforcer to enter initial production for the Bundeswehr and an Anti-Tank version is in development. Its supposedly much cheaper then Javelin/spike.
based? cringe?

Made outdated by FPV killer drones.
Its funny how DIY drones made from hipster hobby parts went ahead of the MIC behemoth.
not until FPV drones are fire and forget.
>cockblocked by jammers on every truck and platoon radioman
FPVs are worthless against anyone with 2005 technology or better.
This is why if you MIC you do better version of FPV drone. Make it with target image lock on and terminal self guidance so you can lock on target outside of the EW jammer. This is what war-fighter needs. BTW it can be done with pretty much same spare change cost hardware as current FPV drones (DJI drones already have lock on and follow mode, only they don't have lock on and ram mode, because of teh obvious reasons)
Instead slow behemoths of MIC are tinkering with dinosaurs old ideas when current year tek left them light years behind the curve
>i need direct LOS to target
>good
Those have existed for years. Google Aerovironment for traditional lock-ons dating back decades or Elbit and Anduril for modern search and destroy autonomy - which still uses humans to confirm over a datalink the jammer attacks. If you want to blind fire into an area without regard for civilians or friendly troops dumb artillery already exists and it doesn't get cockblocked by a sheet hanging over a door.
>Those have existed for years.
Yeah i know Switchblade was made first and had lock on. But it stuck in past. it costs $100000 and doesn't carry RPG warhead, why quadcopters cost about $2000-4000 and its whole another level of availability and spammability

SADARM wants to have word with you.

Tip: it's artillery. Do you know why? Because flinging the sensor and warhead with a tube is fundamentally faster and better than a slow, unreliable drone.
>Tip: it's artillery. Do you know why?
Because quadcopters didn't exist in the 80s.

I wonder how hard it would be to make a beam riding quad copter
>i need to go through a multi-stage kill chain and wait several minutes for the strike to arrive while getting overrun by enemy armor

Drones are not and will never be a substitute for light anti-tank weapons.

It's a useful size but will probably be too expensive to get the mass use it deserves.
Looks like some scifi bullshit. Weren't the ship lasers enough? What's next, a death star?
A DRILL TO PIERCE THE HEAVENS!
is it the french version of tact missile?
I think it's literally a Euro version of the Mini Spike. Not sure what the mini spike is called in Hebrew.
isnt enforcer an anti-tank weapon?
zaatut missile is an anti personnel guided missile, it has frag warheads and flies straight up and is guided on the way down to the enemy. the goal is to hit troops in trenches and behind cover
enforcer has a HE-Frag warhead or a HEDP. Anti-tank is in the works.
Just buy NLAW, you stupid krauts. That way you get something out of your money besides toothless bueraucratic drag and worthless pondering.
NLAW is a close-range defensive weapon. It's really good at what it's supposed to do, which is however not what the javelin does.
>Its supposedly much cheaper then Javelin/spike.
2km range now, seems theyre also targetting mass integration on air to land platforms including a stealth ucav. If that much cheaper certainly could replace Spike-SR and MR . But latest Spike and Javelins are well past 4km now, no?
well, germany doesnt have javelin and i dont think its supposed to replace anything right now.
The anti-tank version is an overfly top attack munition similar to NLAW iirc
Is it better than Panzerfaust 3?
>guided
>likely top attack
>much longer range
You tell me
Panzerfaust 3 is just a bigger RPG-7
