The U.S. defense contractor Leidos has announced that the U.S. Army will soon have a new air defense system designed to defeat incoming cruise missiles and attack drones, small targets that are often difficult to intercept.

According to a press release from the company, the new system, called Indirect Fire Protection Capability (IFPC) Increment 2, has drawn comparisons to Israel’s Iron Dome and the NASAMS Air Defense System.

Prototypes of the system’s launcher called Enduring Shield are currently being manufactured by the Leidos Dynetics Group in Huntsville, Alabama.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
