The Conservative Party has pledged to build an 'iron dome'-style air defence system for Britain capable of stopping drones and missiles. The announcement, reported by the Evening Standard, comes amid debate over national security and defence spending, with the party positioning the shield proposal against Labour's defence record as political attention turns to protecting UK airspace.
Why now: Rising concerns about drone and missile threats in Europe have made air defence a live political issue.
