- How Does Israel’s Iron Dome Missile Defense System Actually work?
During times of high conflict, Israel can experience over 3000 rockets fired at them by militant groups like Hamas in the space of a week. The hyper-advanced Iron Dome missile defense system is responsible for taking out 90% of these. How can it be so effective?
First, a radar system detects incoming rockets, then, a control system uses their speed and trajectory to calculate an impact point. That’s when the Iron Dome batteries spring into action. Each one has three to four launchers capable of firing off 20 guided interceptor missiles in rapid succession, tracking and eliminating the target in mid-air.
It isn’t cheap, with each of the 10 batteries across the country costing an insane fifty million dollars.

Anyone here after watching the reporter as he was there they were getting missiles launched on them and that iron dome held up and stop the rockets it was like 8 . Iron dome is old but still holds up
3000 missiles is just cap now come on james 😭
Oh yes its true kiddo they fired 3000 missiles on oct 7
The only projectile it can't hold is a bombardment station. Long tungsten rods moving over mach 10 fired from space. Gives me cod ghost vibes.
The Iron Dome is used against short range rockets. Israel has other defense systems against ICBMs and such.
Project Thor was shelved because it would cost about 1 trillion to get 4 projectiles into orbit. Now, if spaceflight gets cheaper, maybe we'll see the project restart.
The iron dome doesnt take down 90% of missiles its 95%. But overall a very nice and educational video.
Bruh wtf that intro was messing with my eyes and it don’t help that I just smoked 😂
It intercepts 50- 70% of the rockets, for others it simply calculates they are not dangerous and will fall down way too far away to represent tge danger for anyone (rockets have very predictable trajectory)
*Man they get free fireworks every week.. that's unfair 😕*
You missed a fact. Iron Dome won't intercept rockets heading for unpopulated areas. It saves money
They sorta covered that...that's why it's only 90% effective when it could be ~98%.

when you make them waste 100M with a single rocket that was made in a garge that only costs like idk 20k be like
Nah they cost like $150
US military industrial complex: STONKS 📈📈📈
On average (when you include the handful of "real" rockets they mix in with the majority of the cheaper "homemade" ones they fire) it's roughly one $40k missile for each ~$1,500 rocket. Not counting the $50M for the initial system in general. That's why they don't fire on rockets heading toward less "important" areas. Too expensive. They could have a ~98% effective system otherwise.
you should pay more attention...
it was said that each battery of missiles cost 50M (its actually costs more than that)
each iron dome missile is about 50K.
Good thing America pays for it all!

One quote causes everyone to overlook the entire rest of the video and just go off on some cookie cutter bs. Thats a shame
Especially when the quote doesn't apply. The iron dome intentionally doesn't fire on rockets heading towards less densely populated areas in order to save money. Which essentially puts a price on the lives of those living there.

Love these videos. Infographics u guys are awesome.
One correction. Each launcher has 20 missiles. Each battery has a lot more because there are a few launchers per battery
So how much Rockets are needed to break the iron dome? asking for a friend
Many thousands. The iron dome also prioritizes which rockets to intercept. The ones about to impact on open land areas aren't intercepted.
That’s why HAMAS launched hundred rockets at once, iron dome couldn’t intercept them all.
@@zect556 ngl, that actually pretty smart though

Can’t put a price on life 🤔
For the majority of human history we’ve put a very detailed price list for different people.
For example:
If you are white and European, Israeli or American, you are worth everything (no limits).
But if you are Arabic, idian, African or anything else you are worth less than a penny and the gum that's stuck to someone's shoe.
@@redking6802 The only thing thats worth a penny is the school that taught you spelling.

@Nah mate it sure used to be, we once concurred the planet, didn't leave a corner of the world we didn't reach. But now we have to jump through hoops to be allowed to get out of our small towns, just because we spent our strength seeking knowledge and enlightenment, while others spent their strength building weapons and fighting wars.
But it's as they say, when you win you get to write history regardless of how fake it is.

The hamas is spending 800 $ per rocket and we isreal spend 75k per rocket is that insane
Can't put a price on life, you got a cigarette??
Isreal gets attacked this much?
It does its actually around 300
FYI, some people in Israel live in actual bunkers just because their close to the border
Wait what? Of course.
When we're not at war, it's around 30-100 total a year, depends on which year and so on.
When we're at war, the number is always 4-digits. In March for example there was operation Guardian of the Walls. It was 12 days, and during that time Gaza shot 4,360 rockets and artillery at Israel. 1661 of those were intercepted by the Iron Dome (which only shoots when it calculated that the rockets would fall at a city), 176 were missed by the Iron Dome and hit buildings. And 1843 rockets fell at open lands.
That's (mostly, some are from April but most were during the operation) in 12 days. You also have 30 seconds to 2 minutes to react and find a shelter when the sirens go off, it depends on how close you were to Gaza.
This is the number of rockets and artillery Israel gets in every operation we had.
Guardian of the walls was a very dense one, and an amazing one on behalf of Israel who shot in 2 nights 1500 targets, that took 5+ years to collect by intelligence, with only a few dozens of citizens who unfortunately got killed.
It's a war, unfortunately you can't be 100% clean at it, but you can always try your best at minimizing the amount of death and suffering - and I think that Israel did an amazing job and that, shooting thousands of rockets and destroying enemy buildings with so many few casualties on the others side.
Even the head of UNRWA at Gaza (at the time) said that even though Israel wasn't perfect, they did an amazing job at minimizing the damage....and of course because of speaking the truth he got fired and switched with someone "who fits the mind of the job more properly"... basically with someone who hates Israel, because that's what UNRWAs after, after all.
