Abstract: A weapon system includes a number of WAN components, each WAN component includes a warhead, a launch mechanism for launching the warhead, an aiming mechanism for aiming the launch mechanism to launch the warhead in a desired direction, and a controller that, upon receipt of a command to aim and launch the warhead, operates the aiming mechanism to aim the warhead in the desired direction and then operates the launch mechanism to launch the warhead. The weapon system also includes a WAN component deployment mechanism for deploying the plurality of WAN components in a defended area; and a command center for instructing the controller of one or more of the WAN components to aim and launch the warhead of the each WAN component at a target that has been detected in the defended area.

Abstract: An arrow-type warhead (100,200,300,400,500,600,700) comprises an envelope (102,202), a filling (108), a hardened head section (104) to promote penetration of the target and a stabilizing mechanism (106,210,302,402,502,602) to stabilize the warhead in flight, hi some embodiments the filling (108) is pyrophoric and undergoes an exothermic reaction with the envelope upon impact. In other embodiments the filling is incendiary and undergoes reaction with the envelope upon impact in an oxygen rich-environment. In yet other embodiments, the filling is explosive. In all embodiments, the warhead may be equipped with a mini-rocket propulsion mechanism (802) for propelling the warhead to the target.
