Iran–Israel War: Although Iran attacked Israel with more than 300 missiles and drones last Saturday, Israel escaped major damage. The reason behind this is Israel's advanced defense system. In this war between Iran and Israel, the discussion about Israel's Iron Dome has once again gained momentum.
Israel has built Iron Dome through Rafael Advanced Defense System. It uses radar, advanced tracking technology and anti-missile batteries to detect the direction of attacking rockets and mortars. With the help of which Israel destroyed 99 percent of Iran's missiles in the air. Hamas also suddenly attacked Israel with missiles. Even then, with the help of Iron Dome, 99 percent of the missiles were destroyed in the air.
Iron Dome cost three times Iran's total defense budget
The cost of Israel's Iron Dome is three times the total defense budget of Iran. Iran's total defense budget is 9.95 billion dollars (83 thousand crore rupees), while the cost of building Israel's Iron Dome is about 2.5 crore rupees. It has become worth Rs 3 lakh crore. That means Israel is spending three times more than Iran's defense expenditure, which can destroy most of Iran's weapons.
- Iran's total security budget is $9.95 billion
- Israel's total defense budget is $24.4 billion
- Iran's GDP 413.5 billion dollars
- Israel's GDP is 525 billion dollars
How was this Iron Dome prepared?
The system was designed to respond to rocket attacks launched by Hezbollah during the 2006 war in Lebanon. Developed by Israel's Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, Iron Dome detects the direction of attacking rockets and mortars and destroys them in the air.
Also the huge cost of running the system
Iran's Iron Dome has a interception range of 2.5 miles to 43 miles. The price of the interceptor missile used is 40000-50000 dollars. That means Israel is also spending a lot on the operation of this system. Which is more than the security budget of Iran. Israel is one of the top countries in terms of weapons equipped with advanced technology.
