The EL/M-2080 &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Green Pine&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{lang-he|אורן ירוק}}, {{IPA-he|oʁen jaʁok|pron}}) is an Israeli ground-based missile-defense [[radar]] produced by [[Elta]], a [[subsidiary]] of [[Israel Aerospace Industries]], to operate mainly with the [[Arrow (Israeli missile)|Arrow]] [[missile defense|theater missile defense system]] of Israel, which is jointly funded and produced with the [[United States]]. Green Pine was exported to [[India]], and its advanced version, the Green Pine Block-B, was delivered to [[South Korea]] at a cost of $83 million apiece, and to [[Azerbaijan]]. The [[Israeli Air Defense Command]] within the [[Israeli Air Force]] (IAF) of the [[Israel Defense Forces]] (IDF) operates both Green Pine radars and Green Pine Block-B radars as an integral part of the Arrow system.&lt;br /&gt;
