The Iron beam laser system to get through the final test

The Ministry of Defense in Israel arranges for an additional and important test for iron-made iron delico defense defense defense and defense. “If the test was successful, the Ministry of Defense and the main developer Rafael Advanced Defense Systems Progress forward toward the purpose of launching operations in the last quarter of the year. However, if there are unexpected problems, meeting the planned timetable will be rejected.

The test will be done with the prototype of the system proved to be self-proved to many levels. In a test held back to 2022 to celebrate Prototype how to repair the UAV. During the war, Israel was not ready for the threat of the UAVs, especially on the mountainous boundaries of Lebanese, and there was a steel root. In the entire war, tests are made with laser system.

What is the laser’s iron laser defense system?

The steel beam is designed to become a complex system of iron some. Both will be brought from the same control vehicle. Iron Dome is an interception system for rocket threats within 40 miles, while steel beam, using a strongly 10 kaer beam. There is no similar laser system in the world that produces such power, and for a 100 kilowatt beam, making about 128 kilowatts actually needed.

However, to make unprotected body technology, there are challenges. In total steel beam development, no unexpected answers to different ingredients to load. A central challenge of any laser recognition is suffering, that is, the degree weakened by the beam as it removed the launcher. Laser has many disadvantages, including that cloudy season, the fog or fog is limited to its activity and affect its effectiveness, and it also works in a column and also prompts the target.

Rafael Chairman Dr. Yuval Steinitz tells the National Defense website launched by Gaty with hundreds of small beams each size of a coin. He explained that if a beam hit was found using telescopic reflection, additional beams were ordered by the target and concentration of force interbatement of the target.

Severely cheap than other air defense systems

The Ministry of Defense Directorate of Defense R & D) (MAFAT) leads the project of the iron beam with Rafael, head systems. The Giant Defense Lookheed Martin includes the initiative of the late 2022 by an agreement to invest in the project. Since then, the company invested ten million financial dollars unrelated to the US assistance package that includes $ 500 million per year for joint air defense. Lockheed Martin will eventually sell the US market system.







The Ministry of Defense itself has spent a deal value about NIS 2 billion in the previous October to expand the production of a steel steel, with first delivery of many agenda systems. Although the Ministry of Defense is very strict about schedules, which includes the first operation of the last quarter of the year, there are many systems given during the last test.

There are two reasons behind the pressure of the Ministry of Defense to meet schedules. First, Hermetic Defense has no defense and never, but the combination of iron dome will expand it, including different threats, including rockets, apings, drones and cruise missiles. In addition, the laser-based airer defense is extremely cheaper than defense using rockets or missiles. While an interception with an iron dome is worth $ 30,000, an interception with iron dome cost only $ 5- $ 10.

The powerful system will be searched for export, with $ 1.2 billion invested in steel beam during the Biden administration. The same fund will be used to develop the second steel system of the iron system. In the second cluster, which will include several systems, the US is expected to integrate 50% local production, in a way that will benefit it economically, in accordance with Trump’s policy, and in terms of knowledge for the benefit of US defense.

The Ministry of Defense refuses to comment. Rafael said, “Rafael will give the steel system system to the Ministry of Defense as planned in progress during progress for different situations.”
