Britain is a 'sitting duck' in the face of drone attacks because Ed Miliband's wind farms interfere with radar-based defensive domes, senior defence sources have claimed.
Ministers have been warned the UK lacks any equivalent to Israel's famous 'Iron Dome', which gives it the capability to intercept ballistic missiles at high altitude from 40 miles away.
Military chiefs have called for the Treasury to allocate the estimated £10billion required for the system – but have so far been promised only £1billion to scope out options.
Germany, in comparison, is spending £3.5 billion on the Arrow anti-missile system as part of an expanding pan-European air-defence network.
