TEL AVIV, Israel, Aug. 27 (UPI)

An Israeli Arrow anti-ballistic missile Thursday failed to destroy its target but officials maintained that target was more advanced than the missiles Israel's enemies now have. ..

The test was conducted at Point Magu, California. A U.S. C-17 reportedly flying at an altitude of 20,000 feet fired the target missile that the Haaretz newspaper said was a SRALP. The United States, which has funded most of the Arrow program, provided the target missile.

1. This might discourage

a potential strike against Iran.

2. They forget to turn on the homing beacon on the target?

We make sure OUR missile tests have that beacon on! Sigh....

5. And we still couldn't hit them reliably

What a waste of money!

6. Maybe some Israeli tech got into it

and disabled it before launch. Just to see what it would really do.

3. Another "Israeli" missile system paid for by the US taxpayer

Thanks, Israel, for letting us serve as your target practice, in more than one.
