There are a LOT of cgi videos like that where they are nailing A-10 warthogs and some swept wing fighters.

Boy those things use a lot of ammo.

"Israel is immensely fortunate to have this, as it is clear that the Israelis are going to have to put it to quite a lot of use in the near future. According to Iran’s state-controlled, Fars News Agency, Hamas top dog Fathi Hamad said Sunday: “With the end of the Israeli regime’s latest aggression, the Palestinian resistance has resumed the process of rocket production. Our factories and workshops have restarted producing thousands of rockets to stop Netanyahu’s intransigence in Al-Quds [Jerusalem] and Tel Aviv.” Who is paying for the thousands of new rockets? The same Islamic Republic of Iran that Old Joe Biden’s handlers are so anxious to appease."

In other words, elements in the US "government" are using taxpayer dollars to help finance it.

On top of whose head do the fired rounds land?

It didn’t take long for Iran to lose a warship!

“this war will last forever”

Wars end when one side surrenders or is utterly conquered.

And with Netanyahu supposedly on his way out, it makes me wonder if the “new” coalition government will offer to turn off Iron Dome as a ‘gesture of good will’ to the terrorists?

I feel like those taking over do NOT have the good of Israel in mind...and Israel’s enemies are licking their chops.

Even so, Israel DOES have a Protector who neither slumbers nor sleeps.

Its not a phalanx, its not firing bullets, and investigative journalists neither journal or investigate.

This article is mental drivel.

Israel is not “fortunate” to have iron dome, they were forced to invent and build it.

Iran is fortunate that Israel has not Nuked it into glowing glass because Israel is not violent blood thirsty scum like them.

Long past due, but Israel understands that only God has the right to commit genocide.

Well, in the video it certainly looks like a Phalanx CIWS system, and if those aren’t bullets that it’s firing, what are they?

Pretty sure the video with the CWIS is a “simulation”.

Um, guys, that video is from a video game called Arma 3. There are several hundred such videos on YouTube. Front Page Mag needs to take its head out of its a**.

FWIW I went back to the original YT video and found nothing in the text that indicated it was a ‘simulation’.

But either way, it is a Phalanx system and it is firing bullets, unlike what the poster I was replying to claimed.
