A forward-deployable U.S. ballistic missile defense (BMD) radar arrived at Israel’s Nevatim Air Base in the Negev desert on Sept. 21, Defense News reported Sept. 26. U.S. European Command also confirmed the transfer Sept. 29. More than 100 U.S. military personnel, including technicians and security forces, are being stationed in Israel along with the radar. This would mark the longest-term deployment of U.S. troops to Israeli soil in the Jewish state’s short history. It will also indicate a new degree of integration for U.S. and Israeli BMD networks, and significantly improve both networks’ capabilities.
