Israel speeds up long-range interceptor resupply with large-scale order
2025-07-18
[IsraelTimes] The Defense Ministry says it has signed a “large-scale” order of Arrow air defense system interceptors, with production of the key armaments set to ramp up.

Under the deal, Israel Aerospace Industries will supply a “significant additional quantity of Arrow interceptors,” the ministry says, adding that IAI will “significantly accelerate the serial production.”

Israel’s Arrow 2 and 3 long-range missile defense systems were used extensively during Israel’s 12-day war with Iran last month, as well as amid repeated Houthi attacks from Yemen. There had been speculation that Israel’s supplies of the interceptors had been significantly depleted by the attacks.

In a statement, the director general of the Defense Ministry, Amir Baram, says, “accelerating the production rate of the Arrow and other critical systems is a central component of the ministry’s strategy to expand production capabilities and improve operational readiness for the continuation of the war and future campaigns.”
