Israeli defense contractor Rafael unveiled its new SUPER ICE advanced cruise missile on Wednesday. This innovative, long-range missile can be launched from air, ground, or sea platforms. It builds upon the technological advancements of the proven ICE BREAKER missile family, which has reportedly been used in covert strikes against distant targets in Iran.
The SUPER ICE represents a significant upgrade, featuring a warhead weighing approximately 1,000 pounds (453 kilograms). This warhead delivers four times the destructive power of previous missiles in its class. Rafael highlights the missile's capability for extremely stealthy, low-altitude, terrain-following flight, allowing it to evade advanced enemy detection and radar systems over vast distances.
Furthermore, the SUPER ICE is equipped with highly advanced autonomous navigation systems that ensure maximum accuracy, even without GPS signals and under heavy electronic warfare attacks. Company officials stated that the missile will travel most of its path to the target in darkness and stealth, making it virtually impossible for enemy defense systems to react before impact.
With the introduction of the SUPER ICE, Rafael expands its strategic solutions, offering operational forces unprecedented flexibility and powerful stand-off attack capabilities, backed by accumulated technological and operational experience.
