Israel to use UAVs as missile-armed gunships

September 16-30, 2011

The Israeli Air Force is increasingly using unmanned aerial vehicles not just for reconnaissance and surveillance but for striking. Some of the drones built by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and Elbit Systems are to be used as missile-armed gunships. The Israeli Air Force is expected to form a new squadron of medium-altitude, long endurance UAVs consisting of Elbit’s Hermes 900 and IAI’s Heron 1.

The Jerusalem Post has reported that IAI has joined hands with Rheinmetall Defense of Germany to develop a new weapons system for aerial drones to cope with proliferating threats.
