The throphy system, developed by Rafael, is the only active defense system for the world's only operational warcraft, which has already been successfully tested on the battlefield and provides survivability and maneuverability to the forces, installed on hundreds of ground combat platforms in the IDF, including Merkava III and 4 As well as on the NAMAR armored personnel carriers.

The system is under supply contracts, which will eventually be installed on more than 1,000 IDF platforms, providing proven anti-tank missiles and a wide range of the most advanced threats in the world. The system consists of sensors that detect and classify the threat and its location. Next, the system launches a countermeasure to intercept the threat. The position data of the shooter is transmitted by a "windbreaker" system to field forces in order to neutralize the continuation of the threat.
The system has proven itself since it came into use in 2011, especially during Operation Tzuk Eitan, and was adapted to other types of armored vehicles.
