New IDF Missile Corps Will Revolutionize How Israel Wages War
(Jerusalem Post) Yaakov Katz - Israel's decision on Monday to purchase new precision ground-to-ground rockets is nothing short of a revolution. Israeli companies like Israel Military Industries manufacture rockets today that are guided by GPS and have the ability to strike their targets with unprecedented precision in all weather conditions at ranges of between 30 and 150 km. Having a rocket capability attached to ground forces gives infantry commanders the independence to take out targets faster than in the past. This is made possible by the dramatic upgrade to IDF communication networks. The Tzayad battle management system enables all IDF units to see one another on digital maps and to identify the position of enemy forces.
