Loitering munition systems
UVision develops the HERO family of loitering systems.[9][10][5] The HERO is a sensor-to-shooter system used for surveillance, target acquisition and attack of a variety of targets [11] in the battlefield.[12] The family of loitering systems supports several launch methods: from the ground by a single soldier, from a vehicle, and from a variety of aerial and naval platforms. The HERO flies to the target area, loiters above the point of interest, tracks, and attacks the target.[13] It is operated remotely and controlled in real time by a communications system. The HERO is equipped with an electro-optical camera whose images are received by the command and control station.[14]
