Israel Testing Hyperspectral Camera for UAVs



New Cameras to Collect 'Invisible' Data

The IAF is examining a new camera which will allow UAV aircrafts to collect information invisible to the human eye. The IAF hopes that the camera will assist in uncovering underground bunkers which are camouflaged with vegetation

Aerial photography advances every day at an increasing pace. Years back, you could find a camera positioned in hole in the underbelly of an aircraft. These days, the IAF is going to examine a new camera that will assist in collecting intelligence information and will open a new world of capability options.

The camera, whose professional name is "Hyperspectral", is structured on UAVs and its purpose is to aerially examine details hidden from the human eye. This would help, for example, in the tracking of hidden ammunition.

How Does It Work?

"Once a suspected target such as chemical has been detected, the camera's system will alert the user", explains Lieutenant Colonel Yoav, Head of intelligence Department in the Equipment Squadron. "The camera's functionality is based upon the wave lengths that are extrapolated from certain natural substances which aren't visible. Each substance produces a different wave and the camera is able to tell the difference between the various options". Put simply, the camera could help differentiate between a natural bush and a bush that produces irregular waves.

The "Hyperspectral" technology can tell the difference between the lengths of waves outside the spectrum that is visible to the human eye, and has existed for a few years. In the civilian world it has been used to identify harmful pests from above.

Now, the IAF has begun a series of experiments in order to examine if the system is suitable for integration in the force. If the experiments prove that it is a match, the cameras will be acclimatized into the UAV Squadrons--after long-term training that will be conducted by professional engineers.

Israël - Défense : sales relents au sommet

Des témoignages d'Ehoud Barak, figurant dans un rapport à paraitre du Bureau du Controleur d'Etat obtenu par le journal Yediot Aharonot, font apparaitre les luttes de pouvoir et dysfonctionnements au plus haut niveau de l'armée.

Le profond antagonisme entre le ministre de la Défense, Ehoud Barak, et le précédent chef d'État-major, Gabi Ashkenazi, est connu.

Il s'est particulièrement manifesté au cours du processus de nomination du successeur d'Ashkenazi: celui-ci s'est durement opposé au premier choix de Barak, qui portait sur le major général Yoav Galant. Une affaire de faux document, aujourd'hui traitée par la justice, a envenimé la situation.

Dans un rapport encore confidentiel mais obtenu par le quotidien israélien, différents témoignages du ministre de la Défense devant le Bureau du Contrôleur d'Etat révèlent ces fortes tensions.
"J'ai dit que je voulais un chef d'État-major, et que lui se conduirait comme un caniche", aurait ainsi dit Barak à Ashkenazi au sujet de Galant.

"Quand finalement le moment est venu de prendre une décision, Ashkenazi a dit qu'il n'avait pas confiance en Galant, qu'il ne pourrait pas travailler avec lui, et que sa nomination l'humilierait publiquement", continue Barak. "J'ai décidé de ne pas imposer la nomination de Galant à Ashkenazi et j'ai choisi Benny Gantz à sa place".

Dans un autre témoignage, Barak rapporte des menaces tenues par Ashkenazi.
"Il m'a dit que si je nommais le prochain chef d'État-major à la date que je voulais, une guerre éclaterait", se souvient Barak, qui déclare lui avoir répondu:

"Est-ce que vous entendez ce que vous dites?
Vous êtes mon subordonné. Il ne peut pas y avoir de guerre entre nous.
Je n'ai peur de personne.
Si un général de brigade vous avait parlé comme vous le faites, vous l'auriez éjecté de la pièce". Ashkenazi serait alors sorti de la salle en fureur, d'après Barak.

Barak accuse Ashkenazi et le général de brigade Avi Benayahu, porte-parole de l'armée, d'une conduite digne de la mafia.

IDF moves forward on second JSF squadron

Decision to continue comes despite reports of possible delays, rising costs. Israel could have 40 aircraft by end of decade.

The IDF plans to approve the procurement of a second squadron of F-35 Joint Strike Fighters at a meeting of the General Staff later this month that will convene to finalize the military’s multi-year program.

Called Oz (Hebrew for Strength), the new multi-year program is scheduled to go into effect towards the end of the year. Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz will oversee deliberations on the program over the next few weeks and will bring the final plan to the government for approval.

One of the plan’s key elements is expected to be the procurement of a second squadron of F-35s despite reports of possible delays and a rise in cost.

On Tuesday, the US Senate Armed Services Committee questioned the quality of production of the aircraft by Lockheed Martin citing a “potentially serious issue” with its electronic warfare capability.

“The committee is... concerned about production quality and whether it is sufficient to ensure the delivery of JSF aircraft to the US and its allies at an affordable price,” the committee said in a report accompanying its fiscal 2013 defense budget bill.

Israel placed an order for its first squadron of F- 35s in October 2010 for $2.75 billion. Under the deal, Israel was supposed to receive 20 aircraft but the number could drop due to the rising cost per plane. The aircraft are expected to begin arriving in Israel sometime in 2017.

The fifth-generation stealth F-35 is purported to be one of the most advanced fighter jets in the world with the ability to fly undetected in enemy territory. Its uniqueness stems not only from its stealth capabilities but also due to its integrated sensor suite which provides pilots with unprecedented situational awareness and enables the sharing of information between the various aircraft.

The second contract would likely be of a similar number of aircraft and could mean – depending on when the second deal is signed – that the IAF could have 40 operational aircraft by the end of the decade.

Senate questions over the quality of production of the F-35 will compound the mounting woes of the $396b. Pentagon program, which has already been restructured three times in recent years to extend the development phase and slow production.

Italy has already scaled back its planned orders for the new, radar-evading warplane and several other countries are slowing their orders, citing budgetary pressures. Japan has warned it could cancel its order if the cost per plane rises from what it was offered.

jpost

La puissance de dissuasion d'Israel m'impressionne bcp ils ont reussit à obtenir des USA des F35 gratis ac l'aide financiers americaine alors que l'arabie saoudite signe ac les USA le plus gros contrat d'armement de tt les temps pour les USA Donc fait fonctionner leconomie americaine et ont leur propose des f15 et pour couronner le tt les USA demande le feu very d'Israel pour ce contrat

Israel’s Dolphin-Class Submarines: A Potent Deterrent?

Israel is widely believed to possess the West Asian/Middle East region’s only nuclear arsenal, having achieved this capability during the 1960’s. Of course, Israel does not acknowledge this capability, does not have an articulated nuclear doctrine, has not publicly incorporated its nuclear weapons capability into its security posture and has not tested a nuclear device. This policy of ‘nuclear opacity’ has allowed it to insist that ‘it will not be the first to introduce nuclear weapons into the region’.

As for delivery systems, Israel is believed to have modified US-supplied F-15/F-16 fighter jets to carry nuclear bombs. It also possesses missiles of varying ranges including the ICBM-range Jericho-III. The June 4, 2012 feature in the German magazine Der Spiegel, titled “Operation Samson: Israel's Deployment of Nuclear Missiles on Subs from Germany”, chronicles Israel’s procurement of Dolphin-class submarines and its possible use as a secure nuclear weapons platform. The article features interviews with some senior Israeli and German policy makers associated with the decision to procure the submarines and their acknowledgment of being cognizant of the fact that these platforms could be used as nuclear weapons delivery systems as well.

In the context of the raging controversy over concerns regarding Iran’s nuclear capabilities, the Der Spiegel article draws attention to Israel’s nuclear delivery systems. Israel has currently three German-built submarines in its fleet, inducted since 1999. Reports note that the fourth submarine was handed over to the Israeli Navy in March 2012. Another two are set to be inducted before 2017. Israel is expected to sign agreements to get three more submarines in the near future. As and when these submarines are commissioned, some Israeli analysts note that they will ensure ‘deep-sea dominance’ for Israel.

The Dolphin-class submarines have 10 torpedo tubes, with four of these being larger (650 mm) than the other six (533 mm) to ostensibly carry Special Forces or cruise missiles. Reports note that the larger tubes can launch the Popeye Turbo sea-launched cruise missile (SLCM) which can carry a 200 kg nuclear warhead. This missile was first tested in the waters of the Indian Ocean in 2002. If this 1000 mile range SLCM has indeed been operationalised, it would imply that important targets inside Iran like Natanz or Tehran are within the strategic reach of Israeli submarines from the waters of the Persian Gulf.

Analysts, however, note that these relatively small diesel-powered submarines are primarily designed for coastal patrol purposes and their utility as competent, second-strike platforms will be limited by their operational capabilities. The Dolphin-class submarines are reported to have an operational range of about 2,700 miles. The distance from the ports of Tel Aviv/Haifa to the waters of the Persian Gulf (reduced by about 500 nm if calculated from Eilat) is anywhere between 3000 nm (Oman) to 3800 nm (Kuwait) (reference points at either end of the Gulf for purposes of illustration). With a speed of about 12 knots (snorting speed of 8 knots; maximum speed being 20 knots), the submarines will take anywhere between 10 and 15 days to reach these waters, thus precluding the possibility of launching a punishing strike at short notice. Such a strike can of course be launched by aircraft/missiles in Israel’s arsenal rather than by submarines.

Reports over the past few years have been indicating that Israel has been deploying these submarines in the waters of the Persian Gulf, as a deterrent against possible use of strategic missiles by Iran, Syria or Hezbollah. In July 2009, an Israeli submarine had sailed from the Suez Canal to the Red Sea. In May 2010, it was reported that Israel would ‘permanently’ station at least one of its three submarines in the waters of the Persian Gulf

The reported ability of the submarines to remain unsupplied only for 30 days on station would however mean that, Israel will be stretching the operational effectiveness of its current fleet in maintaining a ‘permanent’ presence in these waters. Reports published in June 2010 that Manama, Bahrain—where the US Fifth Fleet is based—could be used as a possible base/replenishment centre for Israeli submarines was, however, dismissed by Bahraini officials. Israel also does not have any ‘submarine tenders’ (submarine replenishment ships) in its fleet.

Israel’s current operational fleet also does not have Air Independent Propulsion (AIP) technology, which its future submarines are expected to have. AIP would reportedly allow the submarines to stay underwater for more than 18 days at a stretch. The human factor in sustaining prolonged deployment is another issue. Israel currently has only one crew trained per ship, and issues relating to endurance levels and fatigue will be an issue. Reports note that Israel has embarked on improved training courses for crew with the goal of having at least two crews for each ship, thus enhancing their staying time in water.

The possibility of Israel using these submarines for an effective conventional/nuclear pre-emptive strike against Iranian targets is also constrained by the limited number of missiles that a single submarine can carry. Israel is also unlikely to contemplate launching nuclear-tipped cruise missiles pre-emptively. Such a strike would not only go against its current policy of opacity but would also provide justification and international acceptance for Iran and countries of the region to go overtly nuclear.

The capabilities of the Israeli submarines are in contrast to the massive nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines (SSBNs) of major nuclear weapon states like the United States. America’s current fleet of 14 Ohio-class submarines have 24 missile tubes, with each missile capable of carrying eight warheads over inter-continental distances, ensuring deterrence as well as potential use as an effective first-strike platform.

Given these limitations, the primary role of Israel’s current operational fleet of ‘Dolphins’ is likely to be limited to serve as instruments of ‘signalling’ strategic intent to potential enemies (read Iran) rather than as platforms that can launch an effective pre-emptive strike or as competent second-strike platforms. Israel of course will be able to better project strategic reach as and when other more capable submarines enter its fleet.

"Improvements to "Iron Dome

The Aerial Defense Formation of the IAF is not blinded by the success of the system, and is already in development of new and advanced capabilities for the system

Shir Aharon Bram

"Iron Dome", the next stage: The IAF is planning on expanding the "Iron Dome" system and improving it. The second and more advanced version of the system will include advances in interception capabilities, and will respond to a wider range of threats.

"Soon, we will update the system to the Block 2 version", says Lieutenant Colonel Shabtai Ben-Bocher, Head of the Lower Layer Wing of the Shield Administration-the division responsible for developing the needs of the Aerial Defense Formation, and for the advances and improvements of various weaponry systems. "The upgrade will allow us additional interception capabilities, and a variety of improvements that I cannot specify. Beyond that, it's important to note that the system is upgraded on a smaller scale on an ongoing basis. The minute we discover a problem or fault, we fix it and improve immediately, such that if there were to be an escalation tomorrow, we won't have any problems because of that small detail. In many cases, waiting until the next version is unveiled is not an option".

One of the reasons for the need to upgrade the system, aside from the importance of development and professionalism, is that the system was developed rapidly in order to provide a response to the missile and rocket threat on southern residencies-what caused a lack of attention to small details that were not necessary at that point. As a part of the development of Block 2, all those small details will be implemented.

After the development of the second stage, which is expected to end in the middle of next year, the third stage of the system's development (Block 3) is expected. The third stage will include the improvement of control capabilities of the system. Furthermore, the "Iron Dome" system is increasing the number of batteries, while the force is already currently working on constructing additional batteries. Additionally, more and more areas in the country are being prepared for possible activity and a rapid deployment of the system, in the case that one will be needed.
