TROPHY Active Protection System (APS) is the ONLY mature, operational system in the World. Saving lives since 2011, TROPHY transforms any combat platform into an ultra-modern, highly lethal, and survivable machine – enabling exceptional maneuverability for forces in the field. Assured of their safety, ground units are free to rapidly advance and strike, allowing mission completion and uninterrupted combat continuity-  even when carried out deep inside enemy territory.

TROPHY can be integrated with all vehicle classes – tanks or APCs, wheeled, tracked, MBTs, and 8x8s –and is the only fully-integrated APS fielded by NATO. Fully tested, qualified, and extensively combat-proven in hot zones around the world, TROPHY integrations include the US Army’s Abrams MBTs, Israel’s Merkava MBTs and Namer APCs, the UK’s Challenger MBTs, and Germany’s Leopard 2 MBTs.

Manufacturing, production and support is done globally and in Israel. In Europe, EuroTrophy is the hub for the local community.

Main Capabilities

360⁰ Hemispheric Protection

Providing automatic Hostile Fire Detection, TROPHY delivers precise and repeatable performance with over 90% kill probability. At short-range, long-range, and on-the-move, TROPHY provides 360⁰ protection with a high angle of elevation. Among its countermeasures are blasts, fragments, EFP projectiles and bullets – causing minimal collateral impact, reducing the safety distance to just a few meters, with mission-abort option.

Maximized Lethality and Maneuverability

Creating a neutralization bubble around the vehicle, TROPHY engages all known threats – including recoilless rifles, ATGMs, AT rockets, HEAT tank rounds, RPGs and low-signature threats – ensuring crew and vehicle survivability and maneuverability. The system successfully neutralizes enemy anti-tank teams in fractions of seconds, locating the fire source and enabling return fire.

Easily Integrated & Combat-Proven

TROPHY APS can be integrated into various types of armored vehicles, including main battle tanks (MBTs), infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs), and other platforms, both new vehicle designs and existing fleets, enhancing their survivability on the battlefield. It has been extensively tested and proven effective in real-world combat scenarios, intercepting and neutralizing a wide range of threats and saving lives since 2011.
