Philippines to purchase Israeli Rafael SPYDER air defense system

The Philippine Department of National Defense (DND) is planning to acquire a SPYDER air defense system. The SPYDER is built by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems of Israel. The DND says it will purchase the SPYDER, but still needs to determine the quality. The Philippine government is involved a significant military modernization program. The DND has already purchased SPIKE-ER missiles from Israel for the Philippine Navy.
