Basically, an anti-RPG (Rocket Propelled Grenade) system called "Trophy" has been designed in Israel. Seeing how America could benefit from the Trophy system, especially when it comes to the war in Iraq, Israel tried selling the system to America. Now, Trophy has been tested before, and it's proven to be extremely effective. Trophy is designed to be fit on a tank and detect RPGs from all directions and be able to detonate them from a safe distance. Even the experts agree. Trophy would especially seem useful in Iraq, as many American deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan have been caused by RPGs. However, rather than taking the offer to help soldiers from being injured or killed from RPGs right now, the military has decided not to buy the anti-RPG system from Israel, and decided to wait on the production of our own anti-RPG system. However, America's own system is expected to be completed by 2011. Opinions? |
