The air defenses of Israel are the various systems that Israel, usually with foreign government providing some funding, has created to defend its airspace from attacks, including from enemy missiles and aircraft.
Short range systems
Short range targets include small rockets, drones, and artillery shells.
Iron Dome
Iron Dome is a mobile all-weather air defense system, developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries. It is designed it intercept short-range rockets and artillery shells fired from 2.5 to 43 miles (4 to 70 kilometers) away. [1] It was developed with funding from the United States, and was declared operational in 2011, and has since intercepted thousands of missiles from Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza, as well as from Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria. A naval version, called C-Dome, is also in operation with the Israeli Navy. [2]
Iron Beam
Iron Beam is a directed-energy weapon system which is designed to destroy short-range rockets, artillery, and mortars using a fiber laser. It has an expected range of 6.2 miles (10 km), with current models emitting over 100 kW of power, with future models expected to exceed 300 kW. It is expected to become operational by 2026. A naval variant is also in development. [3]
Light Blade
Light Blade is laser system which was developed by Ben-Gurion University, Israel Police, and Israel Defense Forces to intercept balloons, kites, and miniature UAVs, among other threats. It was deployed in 2020 in response to the launch of incendiary balloons from Gaza. It costs less that $3 per interception, and has an effective range of 1.2 miles (2 km). [4]
Barak 1
Barak 1 is a ship-borne short-range surface-to-air missile system designed to defend against aircraft, anti-ship missiles, and other threats. It was jointly designed by Israel Aerospace Industries and Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, and has a range of 0.3 to 7.5 miles (0.5 to 12 km). [5]
Medium range systems
David's Sling
David's Sling is a medium to-long range missile-based system designed to intercept enemy planes, drones, tactical ballistic missiles, medium to-long range rockets and cruise missiles at a range of 25 to 190 miles (40-300 km). It is being jointly developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and the American Raytheon, though some systems are already operational as of April 2017. [6]
Barak 8
Barak 8 is a missile-based system designed to defend against aircraft, anti-ship missiles, UAVs, ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and others. It was jointly designed by Israel Aerospace Industries and India's Defence Research & Development Organization, and became operational with the Indian Air Force in September 2021. It is currently in service with the Israeli Navy. [7]
SPYDER
SPYDER is a surface-to-air missile system designed to defend against aircraft, drones, cruise missiles and other threats. It was developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems with assistance from Israel Aerospace Industries, and was first testing in 2005. It has an operation range of 12 to 31 miles (20 to 50 km). [8]
Long range systems
Arrow
Arrow is a series of systems designed by Israel Aerospace Industries and Boeing to intercept ballistic missiles. Currently, two systems are in service, Arrow 2 and Arrow 3. Arrow 3 has a reported flight range of 1,500 miles (2,400 km), and can, according to the chairman of the Israeli Space Agency, serve as an anti-satellite weapon.
