The Palestinian militants fired about 700 rockets from the Gaza Strip on Israel. It killed 4 Israelis. More than 20 people of Palestine have been killed in retaliation. This is the first time after 2014 when rocket attacks in Israel caused casualties. However, the death toll in Israel was very low in comparison to the invading country. One of the reasons is the anti-missile defense system of the country, the Iron Dome, which the army has just deployed on the border with Gaza.





World's Most Modern Missile defense system





Israel's Iron Dome currently ranks among the world's most modern missile defense systems. It has been built by the Rafael Advance defense system Company, which along with Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has also built Barak-8 missiles.





155 sq km defense radius





The Iron Dome mobile launcher can be transported anywhere with a truck. Its detection-tracking radar, the weapon control system and the missile firing unit are considered to be foolproof. Where the radar identifies and monitors the target for a distance of 4 to 70 kilometers. There are four to five launchers with 20 missiles at a time. The missiles are heat and electric sensors and destroy them by hitting the other missiles.





According to defense contractor company Raithana, one unit of Iron Dome is capable of protecting up to a radius of about 155 sq km. However, these systems have been deployed in more populated areas to prevent attacks from Gaza





The system is deployed at the border from the last 8 years





According to reports, Israel started the creation of mobile defense systems from the year 2007. After successful testing in 2009, it was deployed on the Gaza border in 2011. Within a year, the system had neutralized about 400 rockets fired from Gaza.





India has also shown interest in tech





The main thing is that India has also shown interest in buying this system. According to the Israel News website ' The Times of Israel ' website, India has so far procured a number of foolproof multi-mission radars. In addition, it was said shortly before India was in touch with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to buy Iron Dome for a long time.
