Sky Dew airship, Military observation balloon in northern Israel
Sky Dew is an observation balloon in northern Israel that floats tethered at high altitude and is equipped with sensors for airspace monitoring. The system remains stationed in one location and can be seen from considerable distances across the region.
The balloon entered service in late 2021 and was integrated into Israel's air defense infrastructure. This decision was part of broader investments to enhance airspace monitoring capabilities.
Israel's investment in the Sky Dew system demonstrates the nation's commitment to technological advancement in defense and security measures.
The balloon is visible from various points in the region and remains at its location throughout the year. Visitors should be aware this is a military facility and close access is restricted.
The High Availability Aerostat System incorporates both Israeli and American military technologies, resulting from collaboration between defense organizations of both nations.
