Spike is an Israeli fire-and-forget anti-tank guided missile and anti-personnel missile with a tandem-charge high-explosive anti-tank warhead. As of 2007, it is in its fourth generation. It was developed and designed by the Israeli company Rafael Advanced Defense Systems. It is available in man-portable, vehicle-launched, and helicopter-launched variants.
The Iron Sting is a 120 mm guided mortar munition developed by Elbit Systems of Israel, currently in use by the Israel Defense Forces. The Iron Sting is designed for use with the "Keshet" and "Hanit" mortars in service with the IDF's Infantry Corps. It features dual guidance: laser and GPS, allowing for precise strikes, including in urban areas, minimizing the risk of collateral damage.
