Berlin approved an additional $3.1 billion package for the Israeli Arrow 3 anti-ballistic missile system in Dec. 2025, bringing the total value of Germany’s Arrow 3 procurement to around $6.7 billion, which is the largest defense export deal in Israel’s history, according to the Israeli Defense Ministry.
