Kobi Regev, the David’s Sling battalion commander. “The new and more advanced system, which is connected with our two older systems, the Iron Dome and Arrow Missile Defense System, is more relevant to the threats posed to Israeli citizens.” Along with the Iron Dome, which is designed to intercept short-range rockets, and the Arrow, which intercepts ballistic missiles outside of the Earth’s atmosphere, David’s Sling intercepts tactical ballistic missiles, medium- to long-range rockets, as well as cruise missiles fired at ranges between 40 km.-300 km.

But now, David's Sling has taken over that top name position, imho. That's pretty much "in your face" to Israel's enemies. Kind of "bring it on" and you will receive the same as Goliath did. God Bless & protect Israel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
