Israel Describes Tammuz Missile as 'Strategic Surprise in Any New War'

The Israeli Army Artillery Corps has said it introduced major improvements to the advanced Tammuz missile, describing the new version as “a strategic surprise and deterrence force against the enemy in any coming war.”

The artillery corps described the improved missile, whose older type was used in the July 2006 war against Hizbullah, as the “most advanced and accurate in the world.”

The Tammuz missile can be fired by fighter jets as well as unmanned surveillance aircraft.
