The Jerusalem Post reports: “Elbit’s Hermes 900 drones collectively helped locate dozens of Iran’s concealed ballistic missile launchers during the June war between Israel and the Islamic Republic, the vice president of Marketing and Business Development for Unmanned Aircraft Systems at Elbit Systems, Amir Bettesh, revealed on Wednesday.
Speaking at the UVID Drone Tech conference in Tel Aviv, Bettesh said that the success of the Hermes 900 during the war with Tehran showed that, despite trends in much of the West where mid-size drones are losing market share, they are still a critical aspect of Israeli national security.
Besides locating Iran’s ballistic missile launchers, he said that the Hermes 900, also called the Kochav, helped strike Iran’s mobile air defense systems, radar installations, and ammunition facilities…”
