Israeli Missile Defense Target Pitched to US MDA

Because of developments in Iranian missile defense capability, the IDF commissioned Rafael to develop an improved (relatively) low cost target for testing missile defense systems, the Blue Sparrow missile warhead simulator.

Well, it now appears taht the the US Missile Defense Agency has expressed interest in the target, and may procure the target.

A decision is expected around 2010.
