IDF Boosts Arrow Anti-Missile Defenses in Response to Syrian Missile Threat
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz - The IDF has changed its deployment of Arrow anti-missile missiles in northern Israel. "Our assumption is that the next war will be characterized by missile onslaughts, and lots of them," a high-ranking officer said. "We can tell from the way our 'neighbors' are training that this is what they are planning and that we can expect a repeat of what happened during the Second Lebanon War." A newer model of the Arrow missile - the Arrow 3 - is currently under development and will intercept at higher altitudes than current missiles.
