IAI’s advanced radar and intelligence systems, integral components of the Israel Defence Forces’ (IDF) missile defence strategy, were pivotal in enabling a comprehensive and effective response to the attack. The systems involved, including the Green Pine Radar developed by IAI ELTA Systems, played a vital role in detecting and neutralizing the barrage of missiles aimed at Israel.
Arrow-2 and Arrow-3 missile defence systems were able to accurately intercept the incoming long-range ballistic missiles and so protect Israel’s citizens, IAI said in a statement.
Amir Peretz, Chairman of the Board at IAI, expressed his gratitude and pride in the team’s effort and success. “I am proud of and grateful to the men and women of IAI who were today partners in the successful defence of the State of Israel,” he stated.
IAI’s President and CEO, Boaz Levy, also praised the long-term commitment and expertise of IAI’s engineers. “IAI’s engineers have been working for years to deal with the varied threats against the State of Israel. They have reached a degree of excellence reflected in the results we saw tonight, and this with the full support and cooperation of Israel’s Ministry of Defence and the IDF. We are proud to contribute to maintaining Israel’s security against any threat, however complex it may be,” Levy remarked.
