(Worthy News) – Israeli aerospace company Rafael has unveiled a portable Iron Dome missile defense battery this week, promising deployed troops the same protection the original system provided for civilian populations.
The I-Dome, designed to protect troops from rockets, mortars and UAV attacks, was among several new Israeli-made weapons systems featured this week at the Paris Air Show.
The scaled-down missile battery fits on the back of a large flatbed truck, making the system easily transportable. Its cartridge holds 10 Tamir interceptor misses, instead of the 20 used by its larger Iron Dome counterpart. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
