The very high acquisition cost of this missile has led countries such as Egypt to stay away from it. The South Korean AT-1K Raybolt missile is also faster than it. Investing in developing the Korean missile by increasing its range or even using some components of the Korean missile to develop the Chinese HJ-12E missile would be much better. The economic feasibility and studying the alternatives are always more important. In general, the Emirates benefits from exporting some of its products to Brazil now after the Brazilians stopped investing as well as in the past and left the market to modern countries such as the Emiratis.

It is better if it is made in the UAE with TOT..

The missile is being developed with 4km range and 1000mm penetration it will be good for use if made cheaper.

Do you think it will be cheaper if made in Brazil and bought by the UAE..or made in the UAE with ToT?

Do you think it will be cheaper if made in Brazil and bought by the UAE..or made in the UAE with ToT?

I personally think that both countries should develop missiles on their own and export to eachother.

Working cost in Brazil is probably much cheaper than UAE so I’d say cheaper in Brazil.


Fire and forget missiles are expensive, there’s no way the raybolt missile isn’t at least a couple hundred thousand.

Just a hundred thousand..

Maiman Aerospace tests the RAZOR P100 multi-purpose aircraft



Mayman Aerospace, a subsidiary of the UAE's EDGE Group, begins flight tests on the full pre-production model of the RAZOR P100 multi-functional vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft.

This achievement represents a quantum leap in autonomous aviation technology.

The aircraft is designed to carry a payload of up to 100 pounds over a distance of 240 miles, making it ideal for a number of military and civilian missions. Potential uses include: payload delivery in contested areas, operating target drones, missile range extension, disaster response, marine energy support, sea rescue, medical transport, and others.

Mayman Aerospace operates under an Other Transaction Authority (OTA) contract with the US Department of Defense, reinforcing the strategic importance of this innovative platform. Capable of achieving speeds of up to Mach 0.75, the RAZOR P100 features a compact design and operational flexibility, as it can be prepared for flight in minutes without the need for specialized equipment.



Founder and CEO David Maiman said that this aircraft represents a revolutionary air technology based on artificial intelligence, advanced communications and mobility. He stressed that the aircraft gives military and civilian leaders unprecedented flexibility to use autonomous aerial vehicles quickly and effectively.

Thirdeye Systems, an Israeli military supplier, said it has sold a 30% stake to Emirati state-owned defense conglomerate EDGE for $10 million

EDGE will also put an additional $12 million into a new, majority EDGE-owned joint venture with Thirdeye Systems, the Israeli company said on Monday.
A third party, whose identity was not disclosed, will hold 6% with Thirdeye Systems owning the remaining 43% of the JV.

Thirdeye Systems develops technology that can detect drones and is a supplier to the Israeli military and some NATO members.

Robotic UGV HAVOC8×8​

"Havoc 8 x 8 RCV" was developed by Milirem Robotics, the leading Estonian company in the field of unmanned terrestrial systems (UGV). It is designed to provide high flexibility through a transformed unit system that can be adjusted to perform multiple tasks on the battlefield.



Dimensions and weight:

Dimensions: approximately 6.8 x 2.8 x 2.7 meters.

Weight without load: about 15 tons.

The basic load capacity: up to 5 tons, allowing the installation of multiple armament systems or equipment.

It enables it to climb slopes of up to 60% and side slopes up to 40%.
And 1 m in water

The engine and hybrid propulsion system:

Havoc depends on an electric hybrid payment system that combines an internal combustion engine (mostly diesel) and a set of electric motors.

This system provides immediate torque that enables the vehicle to accelerate at a high speed and a superior ability to move in rough terrain.

The system also gives the semi -silent operation feature, which improves the capabilities of hiding and secrecy in combat environments.

The excellent performance of the payment system contributes to the extension of the operating range and the provision of fuel efficiency, which reduces operational costs.

Turret and armament system:

The vehicle can install a remote armament towers, which allows military operations to conduct fire from a believer's location without exposing the crew at risk.

Turret options:

Among the available options is the installation of a 30 mm gun tower with missile launchers (for example from Frankenburg Technologies or Kongsberg), where the tower can include a thermal control system and advanced telecommunications systems to accurately adjust fire.



The Turret design allows multiple options, so that it can be adapted according to the required role; Whether it is for direct fire support, aircraft control tasks, or as part of an anti-mine bombs.





Control and Monitoring:

The tower is controlled by a distance through a unified command center system, which reduces the burden on the crew and improves the time of
To respond to the threats.

Sensor systems:

Havoc is equipped with an advanced navigation system based on artificial intelligence technologies, allowing the vehicle the ability to make independent tactical decisions within specific limits.

combination of sensors:

The sensor systems include Lidar devices, high -resolution cameras, radar systems and infrared sensors.

These systems are used to collect instant environmental data, provide a comprehensive picture of the field scene, and support monitoring, monitoring and guidance... This data is integrated into a uniform system (C4ISR) that allows linking with other systems and exchanging information in actual time.



Havoc relied on an independent Hydro-PNEUMAMATIC SUSPENSION for each wheel of its eight wheels.



Shield and Protection System:

Standard protection according to Stanag 4569:

Protection from kinetic energy (shots): Stanag 4569 (L3), providing protection against heavy firearms (up to approximately 14.5 mm).

Mine protection: Stanag 4569 (L1) to alleviate the effects of mines and explosive devices.

The system can be equipped with additional high -placists to increase the level of protection according to the requirements of the task.

Robotic capabilities and functions:

Operation without a crew or by directing:

High movement efficiency:

Its diluted weight compared to traditional manned vehicles allows them to perform excellent in rugged terrain, whether in desert or urban environments or even in mountainous areas.

Capacity and stealth capabilities:

The hybrid propulsion system provides a semi -silent movement, which enhances the ability of the vehicle to hide and infiltrate the enemy's attention.

Multiple applications:

Havoc is used in the tasks of supporting mechanical forces, and works as a "suite" for combat vehicles such as tanks and pedestrian combat vehicles.

It is also used in reconnaissance tasks, providing support fire, and distributing various loads according to field requirements.


*** In February 2023 the UAE EDGE group bought a majority shares of the Milirem Robotics company.
