Rafael will supply its client with an advanced naval warfare systems suite, which includes a Combat Management System (CMS), Typhoon and Mini-Typhoon Remote Operating Weapon Systems, Naval Spike Missiles, Sea-Com Internal Communication System and BNET Tactical Data Link, as
well as other components with full maintenance and support services.

Typhoon MLS-ER is a complete Naval Missile System. The system includes Spike-ER launcher & missiles and fire control system installed on a light weight, compact stabilized turret.

The light weight, stabilized system can be installed on a variety of platform ranging from Rigid Hull Inflated Boats (RHIBs) to larger boats and ships.

Typhoon MLS-ER features day and night operation and includes different modes of operation: Fire-and-Forget, Fire Observe & Update and Fire & Steer. This enables the gunner to switch between targets after launch, avoid friendly fire, conduct surveillance/damage assessment and attack hidden targets.

The Philippines Navy could be the Asian country that bought the Naval warfare systems suite.
