Israel is also developing laser interception technology, a new type of weapon that can destroy targets at the speed of light. Laser weapons could be a possible answer to hypersonic threats like the Fatah missile, thanks to their high speed and accuracy. When it comes to the potential threat of hypersonic missiles, laser technology would no longer be limited by the range of traditional interceptors.
Not stopping there, Israel is also researching ways to protect its airspace from outer space. With the development of satellites and space sensor systems, Israel hopes to be able to detect, track and even destroy potential threats from outside the atmosphere. This development is becoming more feasible with breakthroughs in space technology from private companies, notably Elon Musk’s SpaceX. SpaceX not only focuses on civil technology but also has many important contributions to the defense and space security industry. Elon Musk, famous for his vision and groundbreaking inventions, has inspired the world about the outstanding capabilities that space technology can bring.
Backed by technology and international connections, Israel is moving beyond traditional defense systems and toward more modern and intelligent defense methods. However, the race between offensive and defensive weapons continues. New improvements in the speed and agility of hypersonic weapons are posing major challenges to global defense systems, and Israel is no exception. This raises the question: Can Israel’s advanced defense technology counter the hypersonic Fatah missile?
