Israel has successfully tested an upgraded Iron Dome air defense system integrated with the new Iron Beam laser weapon. The enhanced system can switch between missile and laser interceptions, helping counter large-scale drone and rocket attacks more efficiently. With laser interceptions costing just a few dollars compared to roughly $50,000 per Tamir missile, the upgrade could significantly reduce defense costs while strengthening Israel’s multi-layered air shield amid ongoing regional tensions. #israel #irondome #missile #wion
