- AIR LORA is an effective deep Stand-Off air to ground missile system with quick, all-weather, and highly accurate attack capabilities
- Capable of hitting a target with supersonic velocity from deep stand-off ranges within a few minutes – providing quick response against Time Critical Targets (TCT) while maintaining low collateral damage
- AIR LORA is flexible to target location changes and can define a new target location during the airborne mission flight
- The AIR LORA Air to Ground Missile is easy to integrate and simple to operate. It can be supported by an independent Avionic solution for fast IOC (Initial Operation Capability) without changing the existing avionic of the aircraft
Israel Aerospace Industries, a world-class aerospace and defence leader, has unveiled its new “Deep Stand-off” long-range air-launched ballistic missile named “AIR LORA.” The new missile demonstrated its game-changing capabilities in a fire test launched from an F16.
As a member of the LORA family, the AIR LORA is a long-range, Air to Ground Missile (AGM) developed for strike missions against high-quality and well-protected targets such as command centres, air force bases, infrastructure, and Naval Vessels in dense littoral. It can be launched from fighter jets and bomber aircraft.
With a robust warhead of various types, AIR LORA enables Air Forces to strike enemy targets from far distances outside the reach of the Enemy Air Missile Defense (AMD). It features high survivability with advanced immune INS/GNSS Navigation and strong Anti-Jamming capabilities, allowing for 24/7 operation in extreme weather conditions and highly contested battlefields. The AIR LORA can be simply integrated into fighter and bomber aircraft as a Stand-Alone Configuration or through the Avionics System, easy to train, with simple fire-and-forget and autonomous operation.
The AIR LORA has a very high mission success rate mainly due to its supersonic speed and its combat-proven GNSS Anti-Jamming System. The high survivability of the missile is also achieved by end-game trajectory shaping and 90 degrees attack angle.
Jacob Galifat, General Manager of the IAI/MLM Division: “We are very excited to introduce the AIR LORA which opens new frontiers and capabilities for our customers and improves the attack and defence capabilities for countries, with minimal risk to pilots and platforms. AIR LORA offers air forces the ability to surprise the enemy in its deep land with massive and GNSS Anti-Jam protected accurate strike capabilities.”
