Steadicopter has unveiled the Golden Eagle Heavy Strike, an unmanned helicopter fortified by a strategic alliance with Raphael Advanced Defense Systems. 

Equipped with Spike missiles, the Golden Eagle offers enhanced precision strike capabilities. The helicopter minimizes human risk by eliminating unnecessary maneuvers, rapidly deploying from a remote location, and providing real-time situational awareness, which enhances decision-making and safety.

Real-World Applications

In a collaborative effort, a formation of Golden Eagle HS helicopters can take off towards enemy positions and cover great distances. In a remote command center, the commander is able to leverage real-time data to make informed decisions and monitor the mission. 

Fitted with advanced optical sensors, the Golden Eagles can land stealthily near enemy lines, providing continuous visual intelligence. 

In a scenario where an enemy armored vehicle convoy advances, the Golden Eagle’s advanced optical sensors detect the convoy’s movements, transmitting the data to the operator’s portable ground control station.

The Golden Eagles can then take off, ready to engage on command. When the Spike operator gives the order, the Golden Eagles launch their missiles. 

The Spike missiles hit their targets with high-precision, immobilizing the convoy and preventing the enemy from advancing, all with minimal collateral damage.

Golden Eagle HS for Border Security

The Golden Eagle HS is set to bolster homeland security, particularly in border defense. When outpost units detect threats approaching the border at multiple points, they can deploy the Golden Eagles to intercept and combat the enemy.

Operators receive real-time surveillance from the Golden Eagles and can manage their deployment accordingly, directing them to the identified breach points. The operators can decide how many Golden Eagles to send to each location, ensuring optimal coverage and response. 

As the Golden Eagles reach their optimal strike range, they launch the Spike missiles with pinpoint accuracy, neutralizing the threats and securing the border. After the strike, the Golden Eagles perform battle damage assessment, confirming the success of the mission to the commanders in the control room.

The Golden Eagle HS, enhanced with Raphael’s Spike missiles, is a cutting-edge solution for precision, security, and strategic advantage on the modern battlefield.
