Rafael’s laser system offers significant savings over Iron Dome, with lasers costing just $3 for every drone or missile neutralized.
The laser system integrates with the Iron Dome as part of a comprehensive multi-layered air defense network.
The Iron Beam is envisioned as a key component of Israel’s defense strategy against short-range threats like drones and mortars.
Israel is gearing up for the final round of testing on its ‘Iron Beam’ laser defense system, with Defense Ministry and industry insiders confirming that live trials are just around the corner, potentially clearing the way for full deployment by the end of 2025.
