Ukraine is developing its own four-component air defense system modeled on but distinct from Israel's Iron Dome, Air Force Deputy Commander Pavlo Yelizarov announced. Full coverage with expensive missiles such as Patriot or IRIS-T is physically and economically impossible given Ukraine's scale, he said. "Israel's dome would be a small dot on ours, purely in terms of size," Yelizarov explained. The Air Force said it is systematically working on implementation.
