European countries should work on the creation of a missile defence system (BMD) of the Israeli “Iron Dome” type.
This view was expressed by Armin Papperger, director of the German defence company Rheinmetall, in an interview with the Financial Times, the Report reported, citing TASS.
“I believe it would be good for Europe to find a solution similar to the Iron Dome, and not only that,” Papperger said.
He added that the project to build a short-range air defence system was already being considered at the European level, notably as part of Germany’s European Sky Shield (ESSI) initiative.
