David's Sling
David's Sling is an Israeli military system developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Raytheon, designed to intercept enemy planes, drones, tactical ballistic missiles, medium to long-range rockets, and cruise missiles at ranges from 40 to 300 km. It is intended to replace the MIM-23 Hawk and MIM-104 Patriot in the Israeli arsenal and forms one level of Israel's future multi-tiered missile defense system. The system's Stunner missile uses on-board dual CCD/IR seekers and Elta EL/M-2084 Active electronically scanned array multi-mode radar to distinguish between decoys and the actual warhead of the missile. David's Sling became operational in April 2017 and is designed to bolster the second tier of Israel's theater missile defense system.learn more on wikipedia
