it should only be used as our last line of defense. If Iran fired numerous missiles and the arrow shot down all but one nuclear missile then tens of thousands of Israelis would perish. The best defense is a good offense. We should destroy Iran's nuclear facilities before they have the nuclear bomb.

of a first strike is great news! That means we turn around and vaporize them and they know it.

As part of the 60th aniversry celebrations lets hold a big millitary parade. Its a show for the public to enjoy but its real purpose is security because we remind the enemy they are not the only ones with big toys. Offensive balistic misles which can hit Iran, tanks, jets just abit of everything. Its a cheap way of remining the enemy what you have and you dont provide any inteligence for the enemy to pick up on like the ranges of your missles through expensive test fires for show. Also its nice to know that the arrow can defeat the blue sparrow but what we need to hold a test fired against a proper modern balistic missle. So far the only missle it has been tested on is a Gulf War era scud the Americans got their hands on. What is needed is a test fire against either an American or Israeli modern balistic missle thats the only way to get a true idea of just how good arrow is & what needs to be done so it can do the job in battle not a test conditions against a cheap air launched missle because it it came to war. Iran will be using modern balistic missles not air launched blue sparrows or old scuds. If we are to prepare for a threat we must carry out battlefield condition tests because there is no going back to the drawing board once Irans missles start falling.
