Iron Dome

Iron Dome is a missile defense system developed by Israel to intercept and destroy short-range rockets, artillery, and mortars before they reach populated areas. It uses radar to detect incoming threats early, then launches interceptors that target and destroy the projectiles mid-air. The system is highly mobile, modular, and capable of protecting specific zones, significantly reducing the threat to civilians and infrastructure. Iron Dome’s effectiveness lies in its advanced sensors and rapid response, making it a critical component of Israel's security strategy against rocket attacks.
