To protect the weak and vulnerable from missiles shot by hostile entities, having the best missile defense systems is not a luxury but a necessity.
National governments understand this better than anyone else, which is why they spend a fortune on installing these systems in attack-prone areas. Here are three Rafael missile defense systems that you should know about.
Rafael Drone Dome
The Drone Dome is an unmanned counter aircraft system deployed in regions where hostile rockets fired by enemy elements could compromise the airspace. This air missile system secures the airspace from missiles that may be fired by hostile drones. In recent times, missiles fired by autonomous drones have been widely deployed the world over, and they constitute a different threat compared to missiles fired from helicopters and planes. The Drone Dome endorses No-Fly zones across a wider area and identifies hostile drones before they lock in and fire at targets. This system is useful in highly populated areas.
MIC4AD
Rafael MIC4D air missile defense system is another advanced state-of-the-art system built to counter surface and air missiles. This system monitors and controls all missile defense systems active on the field by ensuring that they perform at optimal levels. MIC4D also allocated resources to the most vulnerable spots as quickly as possible. This system also ensures that defense crews are safe on the field. With MIC4AD, several air defense systems can be monitored and controlled simultaneously.
SKY SPOTTER
Unlike the other systems on this list that address the threats posed by rockets shot from drones and multiple system controls, the Sky Spotter missile defense system is designed to detect and engage threats by radars. This device goes a step further compared to what MIC4AD can do. The Sky Spotter can monitor the performance of multiple missile defense systems and monitor different targets and regions where these systems are engaged. In addition, it has an early warning system built to provide operators with fast missile detection. What makes Sky Spotter a viable device is down to its low false alarm rate.
