Rocket propelled barrier defense system

This system protects things like aircraft, ground vehicles, or ships from incoming rocket-propelled grenades. It works by detecting a grenade, then quickly launching a small rocket that pulls a physical barrier, like a net, directly into the grenade's path to intercept it. The system is specifically designed for RPGs and can have multiple launch tubes ready for defense.

Why it matters: Sensor and processing technology for rapid threat detection and trajectory prediction has advanced significantly since 2008. This makes the real-time detection and precise interception required for such a system much more feasible now.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedHigh-speed detection, rocket propulsion, robust barrier, control
