President Donald Trump’s Golden Dome initiative has caught the attention of leading defense manufacturers across the globe. Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Israel’s major aerospace manufacturer, is specifically waiting for confirmation regarding its own potential role in building the missile shield architecture.
IAI is responsible for manufacturing a litany of Israeli military products. The Israeli manufacturer is hoping that its Arrow interceptor missile technology could specifically play a role in Trump’s Golden Dome project. According to IAI chief executive Boaz Levy, the company believes that with some “adaptation,” the Arrow 3 technology could be used for both land-based capabilities in addition to being able to meet the requirements of “kill vehicles” orbiting earth in space.
