Conservative leader Badenoch defends 'Britannia Shield' missile system plan保守党领袖巴德诺克为“不列颠之盾”导弹系统计划辩护
Cranny-Evans said comparing Britannia Shield directly with Israel’s Iron Dome was unhelpful because Iron Dome is only one part of Israel’s wider integrated air defence network and is primarily designed to intercept rockets and drones. He said developing a wider layered air defence network for the UK was possible, but the opportunity cost would be significant. "£10 billion would be much better spent on properly arming the RAF and Royal Navy, and ensuring the Army is ready to fight".

克兰尼-埃文斯表示,将“不列颠之盾”系统与以色列的“铁穹”系统直接比较并无益处,因为“铁穹”只是以色列更广泛的综合防空网络的一部分,其主要设计目的是拦截火箭弹和无人机。他指出,为英国开发更广泛的多层防空网络是可行的,但机会成本将非常巨大。“与其花费100亿英镑,不如将其用于切实武装英国皇家空军和皇家海军,并确保陆军做好战斗准备。”
