# Indian Army Scouts For Medium Range Loitering Missile

[![](https://www.livefistdefence.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Fire-Shadow-copyright-MBDA.jpg)](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_o_no4M2xEPY/S50Xh087lRI/AAAAAAAAJ5E/K-mpFEViJK0/s1600-h/Fire+Shadow+copyright+MBDA.JPG)The Indian Army has said it is interested in procuring unspecified numbers of a new medium range **Loitering Missile **(LM) system, and has sent out Requests for Information to firms in Israel (IAI Malat), France (MBDA) and the US (Raytheon). A glance through the RFI shows the Army is interested in a system with capabilities that include top-attack and the ability to abort an attack after target lock (and re-designate). The Army wants a system where the launcher can be mounted on a Tatra truck. More soon.
