Loitering munitions provide vital capabilities in the disrupted and unpredictable modern battlespace, from real-time ISR to a virtually “on demand” strike capability. Rafael is looking to the future of the technology, empowering systems to operate with increasing autonomy in hostile environments.

In this episode of the Shephard Defence Podcast. we speak with Gideon Weiss, vice president of business development and marketing at Rafael, and Brigadier General L, a land warfare expert and business development manager with Rafael.
