SHILAT's revolutionary technology replaces the 4Q sensor with a high-resolution image sensor. This approach overcomes many of the drawbacks of legacy seekers, and brings laser guidance into munitions of wide circulation.
• Enables stiff-neck (strapdown) laser seeker configuration
• High sensitivity: 10-15x better than 4Q, higher detection ranges (2-3x) vs 4Q

Please note: The pictures below are presented to show SHILAT’s capabilities. However, some are existing customer products which are not available for sale.
High Impact Seeker
As used in IDF’s “Iron Sting” laser guided mortar, SHILAT’s High Impact Seeker withstands the massive shock from the Mortar propulsion. Max. diameter: 75mm.
Versatile Seeker
SHILAT’s Versatile Seeker is a smaller and lighter version of the “High Impact” Seeker. Max. diameter: 62mm.
High Altitude Seeker
SHILAT’s High Altitude Seeker is designed to work at a wide range of temperatures, specifically sub-zero temperatures, with sensor temperature regulation, for air-dropped missiles and projectiles.
Mini High Impact Seeker
With an outer diameter of only 50mm, The Mini High Impact Seeker is a miniature version of the High Impact Seeker.
Custom Shaped Seeker
The Custom Shaped Seekers are designed to be used inside a payload which has limited space and needs a special shape to be integrated.
Full Ogive Seeker
The Full Ogive Seekers are complete Ogive Front delivered by SHILAT to customers. These Seekers include SHILAT’s optics and electronics, image stabilization and laser proximity sensors for near-target detonation.
Full Ogive Seeker NG
SHILAT’s Full Ogive Seeker NG is a newer version of the “Full Ogive” seeker. It has more electronics and capabilities.
