Volkswagen May Produce Iron Dome Parts

Volkswagen is reportedly in discussions with Israeli defense firm Rafael Advanced Defense Systems regarding the potential production of parts for Israel's Iron Dome missile defense system. This move could involve repurposing VW's Osnabrück plant, which faces potential closure. The collaboration signifies a significant diversification for the automotive giant into the defense sector. Such a partnership would represent a major shift in manufacturing focus, potentially securing the plant's future while contributing to defense capabilities.
