The Halkin Anti-Ship Missile (HAS-250) was designed and developed in the UAE and is a surface-to-surface missile that can reach a speed of Mach 0.8 with a range exceeding 250 km. During the final arrival stage, the missile can fly toward its target at an altitude close to the sea level of less than five meters.

To achieve high targeting accuracy, the missile is equipped with an active / passive terminal finder with a radar altimeter.
On this occasion, Saeed Al Mansoori, CEO of Halkin said: “Our company continues to focus on establishing smart capabilities and implementing world-class local products. The HAS-250 represents a major advance in our efforts to equip the Navy with the best-performing cruise missile system. This weapon, which was designed and developed by Halkin in the UAE, will assist in the active defense of Emirati waterways while building on Edge’s growing reputation as a bold, flexible and up-to-date company.
