Description: Israel IDF KEY chain Military kela david קלע דויד RAREDavid's Sling[3] (in English: David's Sling, formerly called Magic Wand) is a system to intercept rockets, medium-long range missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles, developed jointly by Rafael - Advanced Combat Systems of Israel and Raytheon of America. The system has a two-stage, fast-maneuvering interceptor missile, in the nose of which two locating and targeting systems are installed - a radar and an electro-optical sensor. In 2006, Rafael won a tender to develop a defense system against rockets for medium and long ranges (40-300 km).[4 ] In order to enable the financing of the development and the future equipping from the American aid funds, the partnership was established with the American company Raytheon. In some Raytheon publications the interceptor missile is called "Stunner". An experiment with a magic wand system in November 2012 during which the target missile was successfully interceptedThe growing threat of rockets and missiles has led to the development of several defense systems against this threat. In addition to the David Slingshot system to intercept medium and long-range rockets, the Iron Dome system, which is used to intercept short-range rockets, the Arrow 2 system to intercept ballistic missiles, and the Arrow 3 system to intercept ballistic missiles while in space, were developed and put into operational use. The main mission of the David Sling system is to respond to the missiles in the hands of Hezbollah and in the future also to larger missiles equipped by Hamas. According to intelligence estimates, Hezbollah has tens of thousands of rockets, some of which can reach as far as Gush Dan.[5] During the Second Lebanon War, many missiles landed within the interception range of the David Slingshot system. It is expected that the "David Slingshot" system, together with the "Magan Or" (under development), "Iron Dome", "Hats 2" and "Hats 3" systems, will provide maximum air defense against the threat of rockets and missiles in accordance with the doctrine of the multi-layered defense system of Israel. In addition to the role of defense against rockets and missiles, the "David Slingshot" system also replaced the MIM-23 Hawk and Stinger anti-aircraft missiles. According to the developers, the David Slingshot system will also be able to intercept cruise missiles and aircraft,[1] since it has a very fast maneuvering interceptor , which allows him to destroy the target with a direct hit, and not just through an explosion near it.[6] In 2016, the first operational battalion operating the system was established in the air defense system of the Israeli Air Force - Battalion 66. In July 2018, the first operational launch took place when two interceptors were launched towards rockets fired towards Israel from Syria, which the system mistakenly estimated would land in Israeli territory.[7] On May 10, 2023, as part of Operation Shield and Arrow, the system for the first time successfully intercepted a rocket launched from the Gaza Strip and intercepted over Gush Dan.size: 4.5 x 3.5 cm = 1.8" x 1.4"SHIPPING WORLDWIDE AT FLAT RATE OF $10.00 VIA REGISTERED AIR MAIL SIGN FOR MAIL.I ACCEPT PAY PAL PAYMENT ONLY !
