Trophy anti-RPG system (as seen on FOX News)

[HEBOJIbHUK]

Да у него русский акцент, это ГРУшник, сливают дезинформацию американцам, а и те рады

[ahmadov]

the russians had such systmems since 60s

[watchnsw]

I'm so proud of being Israeli lol.

[Fitzknight]

It's an extremely fast-shooting  turret, not a "force field"... come on fox

[Huantans]

@Fitzknight that's what a seller want to sell you, it is a magic bullet to protect your armor

[lastpokemon]

YOu stupid asses.. force field!! its kinda shotgun that shots at the incoming rocket.. I doubt its effectiveness at will be as effective as the patriot antimissile instead of getting hit by only the incoming missile you will get hit by both.. dont forgot arms companies wanna sell government any shit.

[neosin06]

Go Israel!

[redelman43199]

There is no actual force field, all it is is a fast reflexed robotic turret that shoots them down. Sort of like what James Bond had in his car on Die Another Day.

[digisage57]

fox new is so full shit, they runaround a sell all this doom day type shit to people

[Zyamaman]

@digisage57

Well, this time, they were mostly right.

Except for the "force-field" bullshit, maybe, but you can't blame them for this - they were mislead by the early advert video by RAFAEL, which showed such a virtual "bubble", and there was no hard info to explain it back then...

[botchedonce]

Israel does it again!

Way to go Israel, we love you!!!!

[eldudio]

"American " ... "American" .... "American" ... "American" ... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[shinyan0417]

アメリカが突然『核廃絶』を言い出したのは『核』をしのぐ

兵器を開発したからだろう？この動画ような新しい兵器をみても何­とも思わない。オバマも偽善で得たノーベル平和賞をもらってうれ­しいのか？

[jsf35king]

israel began to equip her merkava mk IV in the beginning of 2008

[Ahamster1]

@jsf35king they do cost a bomb though, US 200,000 for one system. Well i it costs way more to train a good infantryman.

[dastubben]

more ways to win a war.

[heavy246]

Why are they not using it now? (isreal)

[toquielkan]

is on service now in the IDF

[CocaColaIceBear]

adir999 : I mean what could happen when you shot 2 RPG Rounds or other AT-Missiles against the vehicle, at the same time . Could it destroy 2 or more AT-Missiles at the same time ?

[dastubben]

it could.

[CocaColaIceBear]

i have a question : what happens of more than one RPg is shot on the vehicle ??

[adir999]

CocaColaIceBear,

you mean like 2 or 3 RPG's in the same time?

its not problem for trophy.

or you mean another kind of missiles?

allso no problem for trophy it is made to give protection to tanks and armored cars from a several rockets systems that i wont say.

[adir999]

there are a few bugs in this system but soon.

btw israel developed allso ground fighting jeap withouth a driver or a remote controller.

its the future baby :)

[kaiwaig]

Now that is AWESOME! McMike321, the reason why they rejected it, because it wasn't created by a US contractor; in other words, they care more about lining the pockets of US contractors than protecting the troops.

[Dunkelseele]

Wrong, the reason is that Isreal linked the purchase of the system with political favors the US didn't want to do, so basically they need to watch around for an alternative... I think they pay Raytheon now, for developing another system smiliar to that from IDF.

[hzzn]

That system is said to be five years away. How wonderful for the troops in the meantime. How do you explain dragonskin body armor being rejected by the us military despite being the better armor? It's all about money and favors.

[lookhearsee]

Nice!

[cahanewasright]

actually this in no "fictional energetic force"

those are small metal thingies tanks fire automaticly when it detects a rocket or if its a primitive rocket launcher i think that the crew uses it manually!

small metalic things that destroy the rocket in mid air that you can't see but they give it to one tank in a platoon i think it costs like 50,000$ bux for each tank(which is cheap)

[gunnyranger2]

Sweet,i hope they can put them on all transportation.

[721508]

Has anyone seen the new american gun which is invisable and causes immense pain and immobalises the enemy. you cant see it so you can't avoid it. brilliant. this invention in this video is class too but just don't sell it to the middle-east for fuck sake.

[bawhow]

Yes,and it hurts so much the only thing you can think about is hauling ass out of the area

[jinkeze]

this invention is FROM the middle east

[721508]

jinkeze. I mean don't sell it to anyone outside of israel and her allies.

[M82A1ASASR]

from Israel*

[megapraimturvo]

yes but the pentagon does not want to field it...

[LIVERLADD]

It sounds brilliant i hope it works now get it to our troops quick time oh and thats your allies to:)

[sidraptor]

think this has come frm reverse engineered alien tech? hehe ite realy cool tho!

[megapraimturvo]

don't doubt it..stealth is believe to be reverse engineered...

[galaktar]

The US military probably just doesn't want to depend on another country for is supply of something that will probably prove indispensable some day. Most of this stuff is classified anyway. All we can do is wonder.

[McMike321]

too bad the US military rejected it, they care more about money rather than the saftey of our fighting men and woman.

[xXWraithSoldierXx]

@McMike321 what the fuck? seriously?

[SilentEagles]

@McMike321

Wrong dumbass. TROPHY and Iron fist haven't been tested back then. US got something or similar. US got Soft kill and Quick kill active protection system.

[SuperRegisteredUser]

@McMike321 Hey, dumbass, first off, do you think anyone would have accepted first paying for the development of the trophy, then paying for buying it? Or are you one of those dumbasses that think Israel develop their own equipment from the ground up? It's based on american technology and paid for by US taxpayers. Secondly, do you think you can do counterinsurgency with a giant shotgun that could go off at any time? Quick kill will be safer for civilians.

[Huantans]

@McMike321 the US military tested it in realistic condition and it didn't perform up to what it claimed to be. btw, the magic force field is nothing but a fast response gun which fires a countermeasure at the incoming bullet. Several countries have been developing such system to protect infantry troops, but not single one mature enough to be seen in an ongoing conflict in Iraq or Afghanistan. But even before such a system is developed, counter-counter measure such as RPG 29 render it ineffective

[watchnsw]

@Huantans May I please have a link supporting your info. Thanks.

[jamiegirl27]

amazing technology!

[redelman431]

Made in Israel!

[MasterChief22530]

I was wondering......since there can only be 1 trophy install on a vehicle.....what happens when ppl put 2 or three trophies on the vehicle....will it add more protection to the vehicle or will the protection remain the same?

[Geobon]

It's just a computer with a gun, so if you mean put more computers and more guns, I don't see why not

[redelman431]

You don't need more then one trophy, trophy is capable of taking out up to 30 simultaneous projectiles!

[NickyH55]

Wow this is weird, i just saw a video MSNBC did on the exact same thing. But it said the U.S. Army will not use the Israeily system because the Army already gave a 70 million dollar contract to Raytheon or some company like that. Not joking you guys should check it out.

[johny8122311]

wow those israelis are amazing !!!

they make the most inovative weapons and protection systems.

[redelman431]

Because we are always under seige.

[YouT00ber]

wow, now that's some real star trek shit right there.
