Israel counters Hezbollah with tech
The article reveals Israel's efforts to develop counter-drone systems that target Hizbollah's unmanned aerial vehicles, especially after vulnerabilities in its defensive capabilities were exposed during recent attacks. Israel is focused on building layered defense systems that include radars, optical and acoustic sensors, and advanced laser technologies such as "Iron Beam" and "Light Bim," aimed at detecting and shooting down drones at low cost. Despite technological advancements, there are still challenges in providing comprehensive interception, particularly against small, pre-programmed drones, prompting Israel to expand its efforts to target drone operators and launch sites. A significant budget has been allocated for 2026 to enhance these systems and develop more robust defense procedures.
