Apparently a short range version of the Barak 8. I guess ABISR stands for Advanced Barak Interceptor Short Range.Could you kindly elaborate on ABISR .. it's the very first time I know of it !! Thanks
P.s Could it be a variant of Iron Dome?
how was the target missile that the f15 launched was moving?Video from today's David Sling test.
Test was successful

thanks for the link but not an effective defence against missiles that travel at double digit mach speeds missiles. All of those target projectiles mimik SCUD missiles or the Iranian missile (as per the link). Their maximum speed at best is 2.5 km/s. I highly doubt this missile's effectiveness against anything traveling over Mach 10. Your thoughts?
Only ballistic missiles that travel over thousands of kilometers climb high enough to reach speeds over Mach 10 while going down from their apogee.thanks for the link but not an effective defence against missiles that travel at double digit mach speeds missiles.

Arrow 2 was built to deal with missiles coming from 200-2500 km, they cannot exceed Mach 10.
Arrow 3 was built to deal with missiles coming from greater distances and higher altitudes.
David's Sling, on the contrary, was built to deal with missiles coming from 70-200 km. These missiles never ever close to Mach 10. So David's Sling isn't going to face ICBM's, it doesn't have to.
Exactly.I see. So it's built for a different type of a weapon.
David-Sling(also known for "Magic Wand") is designed mainly for the layer between Iron Dome to Arrow 2.I see. So it's built for a different type of a weapon.
