Israeli-American defense startup launches new Anthem cruise missile in Morocco military test
The test marked the operational launch of the new Africa Multidomain Training and Experimentation Center (AMTEC), established under the Abraham Accords.
Israeli-American defense firm Covenant Industries recently carried out a live launch of its innovative Anthem cruise missile in Morocco, as part of a joint military exercise involving US forces and the Moroccan Armed Forces. The test marked the operational launch of the Africa Multidomain Training and Experimentation Center (AMTEC), a new military laboratory for advanced warfare technologies established under the Abraham Accords.
Covenant Industries, founded in 2024 by Michael Kaufman, raised hundreds of millions of dollars from Silicon Valley funds to develop the missile. The company focuses on creating advanced warfare technologies at lower costs compared to heavy and expensive cruise missiles. The launch was facilitated through an initiative allowing private technology companies rapid access to military testing grounds within 30 days. This marks a significant milestone towards serial production by the beginning of 2027.
