Romania to deploy Iron Dome missile protection system, according to a government official's announcement
Romania is set to bolster its air defense capabilities with the potential acquisition of the Iron Dome air defense system, as announced by Romanian Defense Minister Ionuț Moștenescu.
The Iron Dome system, currently in use by Israel, has been the subject of the minister's announcement, making headlines in the news, with G4media.ro reporting on the development.
Israel's Iron Dome has demonstrated its efficiency in intercepting short-range rockets and missiles, providing robust air defense for the country. The system's potential acquisition by Romania underscores the Eastern European nation's commitment to strengthening its defense infrastructure.
South Korea, which operates a similar system and has shown interest in Israeli air defense technologies due to threats from North Korea, could be a potential supplier for Romania. This potential collaboration between the two nations could further bolster the Iron Dome's global presence.
