Netanyahu: "The Missile Hit the Missile All Three Times...Metal Hit Metal"
(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "In recent weeks we have carried out three pioneering secret experiments of the Arrow-3 missile. These experiments were held in the U.S. - in Alaska - in full cooperation with our great ally, the U.S. They were successful beyond any imagination. The Arrow-3 - with complete success - intercepted ballistic missiles beyond the atmosphere at unprecedented altitudes and speeds. The execution was perfect - all precise hits." "Today Israel has the ability to act against ballistic missiles that could be launched against us from Iran or anywhere else....I would like to make it clear here that metal hit metal; it was not just a proximity detonation. The missile hit the missile all three times."
