• Guidance and Autonomy
• Enables Long-Range Defeat
• Rapid Integration with any Fire Control
• Tube-Launched from any Platform

Designed with a Small Footprint

The drone threat is challenging and rapidly evolving – defensive systems must evolve even faster to combat this threat. Lockheed Martin has worked with multiple services to rapidly develop and prove a key Counter-Unmanned Aerial System capability: MORFIUS.

MORFIUS is a reusable, multi-engagement, loitering, tube-launched interceptor equipped with an onboard seeker and a compact, high-power microwave effector to execute non-kinetic defeat of drones – including complex swarms.

• Enables multi-engagement and swarm defeat at significantly longer ranges than ground-based systems.
• Ability to recover and reuse reduces stowed inventory requirements and cost compared to expendable weapons.
• Proven onboard seeker relieves sensor requirements for expeditionary systems, allowing compatibility with various defense architectures.
• Demonstrated capability to integrate with any command and control network through open interfaces.
• Flexibly designed with the expeditionary force in mind; can be tube-launched from an air, ground or on-the-move vehicle platform.
• Engineered with more than a decade of HPM expertise and supports Integrated Air & Missile Defense mission area as a force multiplier in a layered defense approach.
