The trials on the TROPHY were carried out by the German Ministry of Defense with the support of the Israeli company Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and the German company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW), and included challenging scenarios for the platform. Following the government-to-government (G to G) agreement signed last February, the German Federal Ministry of Defense (Bundesministerium der Verteidigung) and the Israel Ministry of Defense (Misrad HaBitahon) have completed the first series of successful live fire tests of the Rafael TROPHY active protection system (APS) installed on German Army (Deutsches Heer) Leopard 2A7 main battle tanks.
