Daniel Gold
Iron Dome
One of Israeli Brigadier General Gold’s most noted projects, which he invented and managed, is Iron Dome, the mobile air-defense system that protects Israel from bombardments. Awarded the 2012 Israel Defense Prize, Dr. Gold was lauded for his work on the State of Israel’s military research and development policy. Under his leadership, the IDF R&D unit was awarded the Israel Defense Prize seven times, and Israel attained global leadership and independence in a large number of technological fields and systems.
