| 2018-08-28 |
| [IsraelTimes] The Defense Ministry announces it has purchased a vast network of surface-to-surface precision missiles capable of reaching any target in the region. The deal inked with Israel Military Industries is worth several hundred million shekels, and will supply the IDF with rockets that can hit targets between 30 and 150 kilometers away (18 to 93 miles), according to a ministry statement. Spokeswomen for both the Defense Ministry and IMI declined to disclose the exact price of the rocket system or further details of the rockets’ capabilities. "We are acquiring and developing precision fire systems that will enable the IDF... within a few years to cover anywhere in the region," Defense Minister Avigdor Liberman says. |

| #3 g(r)omgoru Does not make sense, like it says Islamists use schools, hospitals and people homes so how precision helps in hitting them? They need to hit them when moving but not in counter battery fire style. |

| #2 Too bad their delivery is so far out. IDF could use a few precision coastal defense strikers right about now. |
