Thanks, not entirely AI, I'm a defense nerd so I already knew the iron dome wasn't meant for ballistic missiles. I did use chat gpt to help me grab some good sources to make sure I verified before I posted, though.
Building on what the other person said, didn't the earlier strike from Iran take 1 or more hours to arrive after launch, vs these ballistic missiles that arrived in minutes. Very different systems indeed

They have at least 2 other systems to cover for different types of missiles, including ballistic and drones.
