723 u/krt941 Oct 01 '24 edited Oct 01 '24 I watched live coverage from Tel Aviv. It was very clear that these missiles got through by sheer numbers. Dozens of interceptions were caught on one feed. Israel probably prioritized intercepting missiles with the most concerning trajectories. 491 u/Soliden Oct 01 '24 That's how the Iron Dome system works. The radar tracks the trajectory of the incoming missiles and launches interceptors based on their flight path. https://www.npr.org/2024/06/27/g-s1-6384/israel-iron-dome-hezbollah-hamas-missile-defense-limits#:~:text=Iron%20Dome%20uses%20its%20radar,Iron%20Dome%20will%20launch%20interceptors. 10 u/frizzykid Oct 01 '24 Iron dome is not what was being used to destroy these ballistic missiles. Iron dome is for short range unguided rockets. What we saw in action today was David's sling. 2 u/SalzigHund Oct 02 '24 Today would have used both David's Sling and Arrow with Arrow being the primary.
