With drone warfare heating up, especially in the north, and with multiple Hezbollah explosive drones wounding and killing Israelis, Israel has given a "blank check" to its defense industry to come up with solutions, according to Ynet.
Two main solutions are being looked at: an improvement in Iron Dome capabilities, and the reuse of anti-aircraft guns which have since been mothballed, with new technological capabilities.
Defense officials expect anti-drone defense to improve given these efforts, but since Hezbollah is known to have thousands of drones and anti-drone interceptions are expensive, they cautioned that there is no way to "hermetically" seal the border against them.
