The balloon has been described as the biggest balloon ever
made with a length of 17m, weighing several tonnes, and equipped with special
cameras, computers, and
radars, Ammon News reported.
Ynet News stated that the transfers and launch of the
balloon was not simple, and is one of the most complex logistical operations
known to the
Israeli Airforce. The balloon was dismantled and assembled and
inflated by American teams that arrived in Israel to oversee its operations.
The balloon is said to be located parallel to the border
triangle with Syria and Jordan and is said to monitor the land with distances
up to hundreds of kilometers.
In addition to an older balloon that protects the
reactor in Dimona, this new balloon can detect
long-range missiles and drones launched
from Iraq, Syria, Jordan, and Lebanon, the newspaper explained.
