Origin
Israel


Contractor/s
Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. (IAI)

Description: The Harpy is a fire and forget, all weather, day/night, autonomous weapon designed to destroy enemy radar sites without risking aircraft and pilots. The Harpy unmanned air vehicle is launched from a ground vehicle behind the battle zone. Once launched, the weapon remains loitering for hours over the battlefield searching for radar emitters. Once detected, the Harpy tracks the radar signal to its origin attacking and destroying the radar site.

The Harpy has been designed to counter radar systems and specially those associated to Surface-to-Air Missiles (SAM). It has been successfully deployed in the Israel Armed Forces and other Armed Forces worldwide.
