Jerusalem: – Two months ago, Hamas terrorists from Gaza launched more than 4,000 rocket attacks on Israel. The Israeli military says 90% of the rocket attacks have been successfully repelled with the help of Iron Dome, the air defence system. So, Israel and the United States have teamed up to develop a ‘Laser Dome’; it will be more penetrating and accurate than the Iron Dome. The information was revealed by a US company that is a leader in arms manufacturing.
Currently, the Israeli defence forces are equipped with four indigenous air defence systems, Arrow-2, Arrow-3, David’s Sling and Iron Dome. The Israeli army also has an ‘Iron Beam’ laser system, developed by Raphael Advanced Defence Systems. Iron Beam can be used to penetrate short-range rockets, mortar bomb attacks like the Iron Dome, and the system is said to be even more pervasive than the Iron Dome.
