US says THAAD anti-missile system is 'in place' in Israel
U.S. military has rushed its advanced anti-missile system to Israel and it is now «in place», Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said.
THAAD, or the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, is a critical part of the U.S. military's layered air defense systems and adds to Israel's already formidable anti-missile defenses.
«The THAAD system is in place,» Austin said, speaking to reporters before his arrival in Ukraine on Monday.
He declined to say whether it was operational, but added: «We have the ability to put it into operation very quickly and we're on pace with our expectations.»
President Joe Biden said the THAAD's deployment, along with about 100 U.S. soldiers, was meant to help defend Israel, which is weighing an expected retaliation against Iran after Tehran fired more than 180 missiles at Israel on Oct 1.
