Israeli Navy has unique system for diver detection in the world
“Israel developed and put into operation an advanced system – unique in the world – that makes it possible to detect and prevent the infiltration of divers in the open sea.” The official held a meeting with Israeli journalists at the Israeli Navy base in Ashdod. “Since Operation Protective Edge, the maritime border space with the Gaza Strip has undergone a significant change in terms of the force equation and we have introduced a special system aimed at detecting terrorist infiltration through the sea,” the military official said. According to this source, this is a unique technology of its kind that detects the infiltration of divers by means of sound and magnetic waves and other mechanisms that he did not detail. “The beginning of Operation Protective Edge found us in full development of the system, which is a unique Israeli technology in the world for the detection of underwater infiltration,” the official explained. “The system has been operating operationally over the past few months on a continuous basis, and was tested in different ways, and so far it has also produced a good number of false alarms,” he added.
