Not that I blame you, and I doubt I would join them either, but El Al has the only air defense system for passenger jets that I know of.

Copied from Wikipedia:

El Al planes have been fitted with anti-missile counter-measures since the early 2000s, with the initial system known as Flight Guard.[66][67][68][69]

Since the early 2000s, El Al has been the only commercial airline to fit its planes with systems to defend against anti-aircraft missiles. In 2014, El Al began to fit some of its planes that fly on more sensitive routes with an updated missile approach warning system (MAWS) that employs an infrared missile-tracking camera, an “infrared (IR), ultra-violet (UV), or radar missile-approach warning sensor to detect a missile launch in the very early stages of an attack” and a laser system to act as a counter-measure.[70] In November 2014, under the Israeli government’s SkyShield programme, Elbit’s Commercial Multi-Spectral Infrared Countermeasures (C-MUSIC) system was adopted by El Al. “C-MUSIC is one of the biggest and most complex projects ever undertaken at Elbit and in Israel”
