Israel's New Missile Defense System
(Jerusalem Post) Yossi Melman - The new David's Sling system for intercepting medium-range missiles originally was intended to intercept rockets with a range up to 200 km. However, David's Sling has been equipped with additions and technological advancements that will enable it to intercept missiles at greater ranges and higher altitudes. On the other hand, while one short-range Iron Dome interceptor missile costs $70,000, each David's Sling interceptor missile costs a million dollars.
