Description
The Opher uses an infrared seeker that enables autonomous target designation after and before launch. This principle is also referred to as launch and forget because the weapon guides to its target using only its infrared homing head. Thanks to the IR technology, the Opher bomb can operate even in adverse weather. In addition, a single aircraft can release various Opher bombs simultaneously against separated targets. The Opher bomb converts into Lizard by switching the seeker. The Opher is only suitable against targets with high heat signature such as armored vehicles and ships.
