The Jerusalem Post interviewed Saar 6 officers who face threats from Lebanon, Gaza, Iran, and Yemen. The Saar 6 combines 18 different electronic warfare systems, many of which do not exist on any other Israeli naval vessel. The ship's electronic capabilities include communication, missile defense, and cyber warfare systems. The Saar 6 uses the EL/M-2248 MF-STAR system, a multifunction solid-state Active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar. The ship is equipped to defend against a wide range of threats, including drones, ballistic missiles, and enemy aircraft.
