IAI tests new naval missile
Globes Online


Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) today tested its new naval missile, developed at its Malam plant.

The missile tested is a prototype of a short-range missile launched from an Israeli Navy ship, which remains airborne for a few minutes before hitting the target. Security sources said that the test was successful.

The IAI Malam division developed the missile in the hope of selling it to the Israel Defense Forces and other armed forces around the world. The test included firings against both air and sea targets.

Apparently this isn't the new "kill only terrorist missle" we have been hearing about... This one seems to indescriminately destroy whatever it comes in contact with...

Upon hearing this news the IDF is reported to have said "Perfect, we'll start out with 150 of them, bill it to those idiot Americans..."

</sarcasm>
