[32] The bill, the United States–Israel Missile Defense Cooperation and Support Act (H.R. Government-funded rocket-roof protection is in place for homes in communities within 4.5 km of Gaza, but not for structures further from the border. "The continued work of the oil refineries is critical for the Israeli economy during a time of war," he said.

[80], Prior to its deployment, the Iron Dome was criticized as ineffective in countering the Qassam threat for the southern city of Sderot, given the short distance and flight time between the much-attacked city and the rocket launching pads in the Gaza Strip.

The committee believes the Director should ensure, prior to disbursing the authorized $680 million for Iron Dome, that the United States has appropriate rights to this technology for United States defense purposes, subject to an agreement with the Israeli Missile Defense Organization, and in a manner consistent with prior U.S.–Israeli missile defense cooperation on the Arrow and David's Sling suite of systems. Nautilus succeeded in its goal to prove the concept was feasible, but it was never deployed operationally, as the government believed the cheaper alternative was sending in ground troops to stop rocket fire at their source. The system's deployment was coordinated with local communities and the City of Eilat, in order to prevent public panic.

[79], On 21 August 2011, Ynetnews reported that the success of the Iron Dome system against Gazan rocket fire had southern city mayors battling over the right to be the next to have it deployed in their area. "[14], On 28 September 2011, Flight Global reported that according to a source at Rafael, the Israel Defense Forces learned during its deployment that Iron Dome is also effective against aircraft up to an altitude of 32,800 ft (10,000 m). [42], During the first stage of Iron Dome's operational duty, the Israeli Air Force included many soldiers from Sderot, citing high motivation among the city's pre-army youth to be part of the project.

Gen. Gavish said that a fourth battery of the system would be deployed in the "coming months".


Later that day the IDF stressed that the system, though operational, was still under evaluation.

Make sure you time your shots.

The Iron Dome system had successfully intercepted at least 56 rockets (directed at population centers) in 71 attempts. Defense officials said that Iron Dome would be re-deployed in Beersheba.

Government-funded rocket-roof protection is in place for homes in communities within 4.5 km of Gaza, but not for structures further from the border. [90], An unpublished 2013 report by Professor Theodore Postol and two colleagues (including Mordechai Shefer) argued that the official effectiveness figures for Iron Dome during Operation Pillar of Defense were incorrect. It used a collection of components from other systems and succeeded in keeping a beam on the same point for two continuous seconds using an early prototype of the Green Pine radar.

[82][83], Following the system's deployment in April 2011, it was used to successfully intercept Katyusha rockets fired by Palestinian militants. He spoke to The Jerusalem Post ahead of the Air Defense Division's largest-ever draft of soldiers needed to fill the ranks of its increasing number of units and battalions. "Threatening" means the rockets struck populated areas or were intercepted beforehand. One civilian was killed and three others and nine servicemen were wounded by mortar bombs, but they were not in areas protected by Iron Dome.

[138], On 25 March 2019 a J-80 rocket fired from Gaza landed on a house in Mishmeret Israel. [27] In May 2010, the White House announced that U.S. President Barack Obama would seek $205 million from U.S. Congress in his 2011 budget, to spur the production and deployment of additional Iron Dome batteries.

From 1995 to 2005, the United States and Israel jointly developed Nautilus but scrapped the system after concluding it was not feasible, having spent $600 million.

Iron Dome (Hebrew: כִּפַּת בַּרְזֶל ‎, kippat barzel) is a mobile all-weather air defense system developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries. Detection & Tracking Radar: the radar system is built by, Battle Management & Weapon Control (BMC): the control center is built for Rafael by. [88], In comparison with other air defense systems, the effectiveness rate of Iron Dome is very high. [104], The Iron Dome system intercepted 100 rockets that were launched from the Gaza Strip in mid-November 2018. [53], On 27 March 2011, Al Jazeera English reported that Iron Dome has been deployed for the first time.

[74], Iron Dome launches during operation Pillar of Defense, November 2012, According to the Israeli Air Force, during operation "Pillar of Defense" (14–21 November 2012) Iron Dome made 421 interceptions.

While praising American largess, the official said US planners have asked Israel to "point out honestly where the upper limit is in terms of what can be implemented" with the Iron Dome.

[1], Iron Dome has three central components:[1][21], The system's radar is developed and manufactured by IAI's ELTA division and referred to as ELM-2084. Defense officials said that Iron Dome would be re-deployed in Beersheba. [7][8] Israel hopes to increase the range of Iron Dome's interceptions, from the current maximum of 70 km (45 miles) to 250 km and make it more versatile so that it could intercept rockets coming from two directions simultaneously.
