The Iron Dome: Israel's Revolutionary Missile Defence System

Subscribe
As the conflict between Israel and Hamas escalates, Israel's advanced missile defence system, developed over several decades, has taken centre stage. Below, we examine what has made this system such an exceptional piece of technology.
Over the past two decades, Israel has carefully developed its missile defense system, which is called the Iron Dome, aimed at deflecting as many threats as possible at any range.
The existence of the Iron Dome forces Israel's opponents, primarily Hamas, to try to overcome quality with quantity by firing thousands of homemade rockets simultaneously in the hope of penetrating the missile shield Israel is building.
During the recent escalation, Israel's missile defense system has countered most of the threats thrown at it. However, even the most sophisticated missile defense system cannot guarantee complete protection against missiles.
Nevertheless, according to military observers, Israel's missile defense system is one of the most reliable on Earth.

Sputnik provides infographics explaining the intricacies of this system.
