Development of the Arrow-3 ballistic missiles interceptor continues and the program has reached a number of very crucial milestones.
The Arrow weapon system consists of large, modern phase array radar, a battle management center and a two stage interceptor missile launched from a relatively simple multi barrel launcher. The missile is equipped with an infrared homing kill vehicle containing a powerful warhead that sends a focused beam of heavy fragments at the target. This large number of heavy tungsten fragments is sufficient to shred to pieces any type of hostile warhead, be it nuclear, chemical or explosive.
