Germany will officially deploy the Israeli-supplied Arrow 3 missile defence system this week, marking the first time the long-range interceptor will be used outside Israel. The Jerusalem Post reported that the $3.6 billion deal is proceeding as Berlin continues to purchase Israeli weapons while lifting a temporary arms-sales ban linked to the Israel-Hamas War.
According to the report, IMDO Director Mr. Moshe Patel, “Arrow 3” Project Head for Germany Colonel Carsten Koepper, and IAI’s Missiles and Space Division Head Mr. Guy Bar Lev were the lead figures in the talks. Representatives from IAI’s MLM Division and Elta also took part as part of the wider work to finalise operational planning.
