Alternative Technology: The United States funds the Israeli laser Iron Beam air defense system

Iron ray is a development that is technologically different from the approach that American manufacturers have chosen in laser weapons. US President Joe Baiden's request for additional funding for Ukraine, Israel and other issues will include the financing of the Iron Beam Israeli Laser Laser System. About it reports Defense News. Currently, there is a misunderstanding between lawmakers and the US President.

Baiden President stands for the vote on the help of Ukraine and Israel with one large package. However, Republicans believe that funding should be allocated separately. Israel is offered to allocate $ 14 billion. The head of the Arch Academy of Arc said that Iron Beam is a promising development. The US is planning to allocate $ 1. 3 billion for financing. "If they succeed, the army may definitely think about using it," Bush said.

He added that he was already demonstrated by the first prototype of directed energy technology to expand the capabilities of the famous "iron dome". In parallel with this for the US Army, they develop laser weapons from Leidos Dynetics. Despite the complexity of the supply chain, the first prototypes are already entering the US army. In October, two installations per 300 kW were ordered with two more. "Israeli system is a slightly different technological approach.

So it's really a good complement because we go one way and they are something else. I think, yes, there is potential, and if their system works well, we could think about that To use it for our needs in this space, so the advantage of this funding is that we can explore several ways and see what works, "Bush explained. Another technological approach means how the laser beam is formed, but the officer did not call the details.
