Emphasizing the unique capabilities of the system, Yuval Steinitz, president of Rafael, added: "Two years ago we achieved a new world achievement by successfully intercepting an object at an unprecedented distance using laser technology."

Turgeman praised the exceptional performance of Rafale's Python 4 and 5 missiles against drones and cruise missiles, especially during the recent Iranian attacks. "Its efficiency is so extraordinary that further improvement will be a challenge," he said. He added that the Python 4 missile, despite its age of four decades, is still impressive in its capabilities.

Rafael is also developing "Skysonic", a hypersonic interception system designed to deal with hypersonic missile threats.
