It features an advanced IIR (Imaging Infra-Red) seeker, ideal for engagement of maritime and land targets, stationary or moving, in advanced Anti Access\/Area Denial (A2\/AD) arenas, and in littoral or brown water, including archipelago, as well as for engagements in which previous generation RF-seeker-based missiles are not effective,\u201d Rafael said in a June 30 statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At an event showcasing the missile, which is several meters long and has swept wings that flip out after it is launched, Rafael executives and project managers for the system traced the missile back to the company\u2019s precision-guided missiles and bombs, such as the Spice 250 and Spike NLOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sea Breaker is intended for naval ships, such as frigates, and also land-based launchers. Rafael said it fits in its Spyder launchers, enabling a plug-and-play format that means air defense missiles can be stacked with Sea Breaker in the same battery. This kind of open architecture and plug-and-play model has been seen before <a href=\"https:\/\/nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.defensenews.com%2Fglobal%2Feurope%2F2020%2F09%2F08%2Frafael-eyes-polish-short-range-air-defense-tender%2F&#038;data=04%7C01%7Crose.shilling%40mco.com%7C2c827160e3c94896f37c08d93d6ba9ac%7C1d5c96e57ee2446dbed8d0f8c50edea5%7C1%7C0%7C637608354937719084%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&#038;sdata=9xgn88cF58PVA4MGCAGDNEO3KKkAIamZ8vetC0wdT4s%3D&#038;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\">with Rafael\u2019s SkyCeptor<\/a>, which can be used in a Patriot battery. Spyder is usually equipped with I-Derby and Python-5 missiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new system includes a 250-pound (113-kilogram) \u201cpenetration, blast and fragmentation warhead, making a single hit effective enough to neutralize a frigate-sized ship,\u201d Rafael said. The 250-pound warhead size is similar to the Mark 81 bomb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe missile\u2019s data link supports real-time, man-in-the-loop decision-making and tactical updates. It also features a midflight abort capability and battle damage assessment,\u201d the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eli, who is the head of Rafael\u2019s naval missile systems business and whose last name was not provided for security reasons, said the system\u2019s unique capabilities include its computer vision and artificial intelligence, as well as its mission-planning system. With evasive flight maneuvers and a large warhead for its less than 400-kilogram size, it is \u201cquite unique in those dimensions \u2026 it\u2019s compact and compatible, and I think the computer, the AI and [automatic target recognition], and computer vision is a novelty of the company combining it with man-in-the-loop, mission planning and agile flight profile.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It also reportedly performs \u201cdeep learning\u201d that it combines with its AI capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A tactical missile designed to be deployed in salvos like an artillery battery with a low-flight ability and its automatic target recognition enables it to be \u201ccomplete autonomous,\u201d Eli said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The need for better target recognition is important in environments with moving targets, such as a port where civilian and military ships might be in close quarters. This means a missile that has been fired from hundreds of kilometers away may need to quickly discriminate against a recognizable target, such as striking a gunboat rather than hitting a similar-looking trawler. Rafael said the missile can also shift to a different target at the homing stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The missile is designed for maritime targets and those near the shore, as well as headquarters, airports or other hardened targets. Eli said that given the constraints on ships in terms of weight and displacement, having a dual-purpose weapon is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recent conflicts have shown that the ability to find high-quality targets is also critical. Radar-based seekers alert an enemy, and having a missile that can avoid electronic warfare measures and engage in a GPS-denied environment is a \u201csolution that is better than everything else.\u201d Recent conflicts also illustrated how major conventional wars with clear delimitations between opposing forces are no longer the norm. Instead, wars take place near civilians, and precision to avoid casualties is imperative. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rafael said it is already seeing interest from countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The developers emphasize that the future battlefield involves more GPS-denied environments and a greater need for missiles like this to be immune to electronic countermeasures with a 300-kilometer range and for compact flexibility in how they can be put on trucks or ships. Rafael said that including AI, scene matching and automatic target recognition with electro-optics is what makes it a fifth-generation system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The need for better target recognition is important in environments with moving targets and near civilians.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":62746,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":6,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"10":{"categories":["industry","daily-news-roundup","newsletters"],"primary_category":"industry"}}},"categories":[6,106,29,13,32],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3340],"class_list":["post-20990","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artificial-intelligence","category-daily-brief","category-home","category-industry","category-newsletters"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"OF53J762TBEXLL6G6SEPSQ3ODE","arc_canonical_url":"\/industry\/2021\/07\/02\/rafael-combines-ai-and-automatic-target-recognition-in-new-sea-breaker-missile\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Rafael combines AI and automatic target recognition in new Sea Breaker missile - C4ISRNet<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The need for better target recognition is important in environments with moving targets and near civilians.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"noindex, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Rafael combines AI and automatic target recognition in new Sea Breaker missile\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The need for better target recognition is important in environments with moving targets and near civilians.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/artificial-intelligence\/2021\/07\/02\/rafael-combines-ai-and-automatic-target-recognition-in-new-sea-breaker-missile\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"C4ISRNet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-07-02T19:56:15+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T18:04:43+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Seth J.
