Prime Minister, there are thousands of dedicated workers here, some of whom you’ve met, working night and day to produce more Iron Dome interceptors, David’s Sling, additional TROPHY Active Protection Systems and developing new means and capabilities for the air, ground, sea, and intelligence forces aiding and already operating in the ongoing conflict.”
