Israeli "Trophy" Anti-RPG System to be Installed on US Tanks

Israel National News "Trophy uses one radar to detect the launching of an RPG (rocket-propelled grenade) or the like at it. Another radar then tracks the incoming missile and detects when it is in range. At that point, Trophy employs a counter-measure, whose details are still secret, to directly hit and neutralize the head of the threat, thus detonating it before it makes contact with the targeted tank or vehicle." Hat tip to Clark Best, Oregon.
