Is the latest delivery of Shaldag Mark 5 from Israel now armed with missiles?
The latest delivery of the Shaldag Mark 5 to the Philippines from Israel created quite a buzz online as the country’s inventory of modern warfare equipment has improved, albeit very slowly, when compared to its neighbors in Asia.
But that’s not the only good news for Filipino defense enthusiasts because there is another equally good one that will surely keep them in stitches.
Yes, your guess is right!
According to the Facebook page NextGen PHDefense, the latest delivery of Shaldag Mark 5 is already equipped with missiles.
This is not surprising, though, because, as per previous reports, 4 out of 9 Shaldag Mark 5 purchased by the previous administration will be armed with Typhoon MLS Spike N-Los.
The Typhoon MLS Spike N-Los refers to the integration of the Typhoon MLS (Multi-Launch System) with the Spike NLOS (Non-Line-Of-Sight) maritime missile. Developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, this system represents a naval adaptation of the land-based Spike NLOS system.
The Typhoon MLS serves as a lightweight turret unit designed for positioning, pointing, and remote automated launch of the Spike-NLOS missile, along with two Spike-ER missiles. The Typhoon MLS utilizes a standard Typhoon pedestal, electronics, and control systems, providing a comprehensive naval missile and gun system.
The Spike NLOS missile is part of Rafael's multigenerational SPIKE family and is designed for both anti-ship and land-attack missions. It features advanced capabilities such as precision targeting and extended range.
