House seeks tighter U.S.-Israeli missile defenses
The U.S. House of Representatives has adopted a measure that would redirect $205 million in funds from the Pentagon towards missile defense projects already underway in Israel.

The measure would provide $25 million more for Arrow missile co-production and integration, $45 million for a U.S.-Israeli short-range missile defense system dubbed "David's Sling" and $135 million to buy a Theater High Altitude Area Defense, or THAAD, fire unit.
