After nearly year's delay, Israel's Arrow 3 anti-missile is to be tested soon.
The Arrow 3 is a joint development project funded and produced by Israel and the United States between Israel Aerospace Industries Ltd. and Boeing.
The Israeli Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency supervise the Arrow 3 project.
The Arrow 3 system uses anti-ballistic missiles designed to fulfill Israel's desire for a theater missile defense system that would be more effective against ballistic missiles than the United States-supplied MIM-104 Patriot surface-to-air missile system, built by Raytheon.
The MIM-104 Patriot is the U.S. Army's primary High-to-Medium Air Defense system and serves the U.S. Army's anti-ballistic missile system. The Patriot systems supplied to Israel were used for defense against Iraqi SCUD missiles during the 1991 Gulf War. Israel has pressed the development of the Arrow 3 to supplement its MIM-104 Patriot deployments.
