The US Missile Defense Agency and Israel’s Missile Defense Organization successfully demonstrated the David’s Sling Weapons System in a series of tests at Yanat Sea Range in Israel, MDA said in a statement released Wednesday.

David’s Sling is a missile defense system to defend against large-caliber rockets, short-range ballistic missiles and other developing threats, and it is central to Israel’s multi-layer, anti-missile array, MDA said. The US has helped to co-develop the system. Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems is the prime contractor while Raytheon is a subcontractor.
