澳大利亚政府正评估购买与以色列“铁穹”系统相关的拦截导弹，旨在加快建立地面导弹防御盾牌 1。国防官员指出，鉴于乌克兰和中东地区战争形态的快速演变，澳方计划在21世纪30年代初拥有该系统 1。目前的相关讨论涉及美国雷神公司（Raytheon）的产品以及以色列拉斐尔先进防御系统公司（Rafael Advanced Defense Systems）的产品 1。这一举措的背景是安全威胁的显著上升，数据显示，国防基地上空的无人机入侵事件已从2022年的19起激增至去年的204起 1。
在决策流程方面，空军中将Robert Chipman表示，国防部将于明年通过竞争性筛选程序向政府提出建议，该程序将与2027年的“护身军刀”（Talisman Sabre）演习挂钩 1。此外，美军海军陆战队已于6月在关岛测试了卡车挂载的中程拦截器，澳大利亚也参与了相关区域演习 1。针对外界关注，环境部长Murray Watt表示，“政府将始终寻求提供最合适的军事技术” 1。
The Australian government is exploring the acquisition of missile interceptors linked to Israel’s “Iron Dome” system as part of an accelerated effort to establish a ground-based missile defence shield by the early 2030s 1. This initiative comes in response to rapidly evolving warfare tactics observed in Ukraine and the Middle East, prompting defence officials to prioritise modern air defence capabilities within this timeframe 1. The procurement discussions currently involve potential suppliers such as Rafael Advanced Defense Systems from Israel and Raytheon, alongside considerations for US Patriot systems 1.
Rising security concerns have further driven this strategic review, highlighted by a dramatic increase in drone incursions over defence bases, which surged from 19 incidents in 2022 to 204 last year 1. Environment Minister Murray Watt stated that the government remains committed to securing the most appropriate military technology available 1. According to Air Vice Marshal Robert Chipman, the Department of Defence plans to submit its recommendations to the government next year following a competitive selection process tied to the Talisman Sabre exercises scheduled for 2027 1. These deliberations are also informed by recent regional tests, including US Marine Corps trials of truck-mounted medium-range interceptors in Guam in June, where Australia participated in associated activities 1.
