It’s good to see it was successful in this case but Iron Dome has been shown to be only partially successful against swarms. It’s also not cost effective - the missiles Iron Dome uses to take down other missiles and drones cost way more than what they take down. Both the US and Israel will need to come up with alternatives.

“Both the US and Israel will need to come up with alternatives.”

Killing the people who are launching the missiles works for me.

I agree

This is way too expensive and is basically useless when swarmed.

Also is almost useless with hypersonic missles

But England has some sort of laser that was successfully introduced a couple months ago

I know that Israel and USA have been working on their own laser for many years now , I don’t understand the delay in building this. It’s been years
