Del 16 al 27 de noviembre, dos suboficiales del Tercio 3º Don Juan de Austria recibieron el primer curso de formadores de instructores del sistema «SPIKE LR2» en la Academia de Infantería de Toledo, impartido por la empresa Rafael, adquiriendocon él nuevas capacidades y aumentando la efectividad de losistemas contra-carro
en dotación.
El sistema «SPIKE LR2» se caracteriza por mejorar el método de observación de la ICLU (Unidad de Control de Lanzamiento Integrada), ofreciendo una interfaz muy intuitiva para su control.
Las particularidades de este arma, son la adaptación a varios tipos de terreno y posiciones de disparo, observación efectiva de día y de noche, adquisición efectiva del blanco,operación precisa contra blanco altamente rentables, operación terrestre a distancias de hasta 5,5 km, capacidades multipropósitos contra una variedad de blancos y asignación y destrucción de blancos de terceros (IMU)

BGOAA is split across four areas: a Close-In Self Defence (CISD) capability, a long-range Mounted Close Combat Overwatch (MCCO) capability akin to the Swingfire system of the past, and mounted and dismounted Close Combat Anti-Armour Weapons (CCAAW), which will form the successor to the in-service Javelin.
The project aims to deliver commonality between effectors and launchers to drive down costs while allowing a smaller, more dispersed British force to achieve overmatch against peer threats into the 2050s.
Commenting on the existing capabilities BGOAA is seeking to replace, British Army Lieutenant Colonel Mike Baxter, S01 for Light and Medium Forces, said: “These systems were designed in the 90s and 00s, typically as dismounted systems and not optimised for fire-on-the-move. One could also suggest that, during the lifetime of these systems, they have not really faced a significant armour threat.
“But armour or threats that have to be engaged by these weapons systems have been present throughout that time, and the scale and the complexity of use of those systems have probably exceeded the designers’ thoughts when they first brought those systems into use.”
Key to developing the four BGOAA project lines is developing a Ministry of Defence-owned architecture for effectors and fire control systems that would allow anti-armour systems to be rapidly upgraded to maintain their relevance.
Baxter said: “BGOAA takes the experience of the last few years with the aim of providing accurate, long-range engagement capabilities down to the section level against armoured and non-armoured targets, It also keeps in mind the potential for state-on-state or peer-on-peer conflict and the great power competition that seems to be making a comeback in world dynamics”.

Pero vamos, me interesa más lo que he comentado: ¿cómo veríais adaptar ese tipo de sistemas para el lanzamiento de drones, normales y loitering, de los que se lanzan entubados? Como aquel video de vehículos chinos ligeros con algo parecido a lanzacohetes pero realmente para lanzar drones loitering. Yo lo veo resultón.
