Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and its subsidiary DSIT Solutions have jointly unveiled a surface vessel-launched variant of the Torbuster hard-kill torpedo countermeasure system.

The original Torbuster is a submarine-launched torpedo countermeasure, which was developed to meet a requirement for the Israeli Navy.

The surface vessel-launched variant is known as the Torbuster SP, and it is being unveiled for the first time at the IMDEX 2023 naval exhibition held in Changi, Singapore, from 3 to 5 May, a Rafael representative told Janes at the exhibition.

Similar to the submarine-launched variant, the Torbuster SP can employ either generic or tailored acoustic signals to lure an incoming torpedo. Once it senses that it is at the closest point of approach of the incoming torpedo, the Torbuster SP detonates its warhead.
