Re: Iron Dome: How Israeli defense system saved lives

"The lives beings saved were not only those of Israeli citizens and soldiers, but of the Palestinians in Gaza who would have tended to suffer the most had there been an incursion.” - "Ari," Israeli engineer


HAIFA, Israel – If there was one clear winner in the latest round of hostilities between Israel and Hamas, it was the Iron Dome -- the Jewish state's complex defense system that plucks rockets out of the sky before they can threaten civilian targets.

As daily rocket attacks from Gaza leapt from a handful to hundreds earlier this month, the vaunted system was deployed to near universal praise, intercepting an estimated 400 potentially deadly missiles. In an exclusive interview with FoxNews.com, "Ari," an Iron Dome engineer whose real name is being withheld, described what it is like to be part of the team of cutting edge technology developers, and the challenges faced by the team at Rafael Advanced Defense Systems, which worked with two other Israeli companies, Elta, and mPrest Systems on the program.

“I’m an engineer and not a politician, but I can tell you there were a tremendous amount of lives saved," Ari said of the Iron Dome, a system for detecting launches, determining the rockets' trajectory and intercepting those that pose a threat with counter-missiles fired from strategically-located batteries.

Fun Fact:

the 5th Iron Dome battery was not even supposed to be operational nor be able to intercept heavy, long-range rockets like Fajr-5 or Zelzal.

But when the Gaza thing broke out, 5th Iron Dome battery had to literally be rushed to Tel Aviv from testing grounds 3 months ahead of schedule.

And do you know who was commanding this impromptu installation maneuver that later recorded world's first ever intercept of Fajr-5 rocket heading to Tel Aviv?

a WOMAN on 9th month of PREGNANCY!!!

I guess she's an Aero-space engineer, her name is Hila, she's 28 years old and her husband is an Air-force officer.... Here's her pic:

Hey, how do you think it makes the assorted Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PRC, PLFP and Al-Martyrs Brigade islamic terrorist feel.... knowing that a very-pregnant WOMAN helped stop their rockets at Tel Aviv?

It must drive them insane!


Hey speaking of which.... you know how Muslims always bleat and screech about how Jerusalem is so holy to them.... well, guess what? Hamas and Islamic Jihad attempted to fire long-rage rockets at Jerusalem, which risked hitting their precious Al-Aqsa Mosque! Talk about bloody irony!

And you know the funniest part? When they shot at Jerusalem, the MISSED ----> and it ended up hitting an ARAB village several miles away! I guess Allah willed it, AHAAHAHAHA!

Kinda reminds me when during 2006 Lebanon War, Hezbollah tried to hit Israel towns in the North -----> and most Israel civilains killed were Israeli ARABS! And you know why? Because they insisted on staying outside in order to help Hezbollah target Israeli targets better!

I swear, it's like Allah is the biggest prankster in the world (well, technically, since he resides on the Moon, that would make him the biggest prankster on the Moon, but that's not really saying much, is it?)

you've completely succumbed to the propaganda or are a shill

Iron dome is nothing but a version of the patriot system
the success rate is still under 4.5 %
it's pathetic

the difference was that it required a US aircraft carrier to feed extra data into the system real time off the coast of israel to achieve better accuracy which despite that was embarasing

Or is that you really couldn't give a fuck about American children, you just use them as an excuse to hate Jews and would like to see them bombed out of existence?

How very "Palestinian" of you.

Why should any American care about J-ews in the middle east more than children that are US citizens?

The J-ews wouldn't get bombed out of existence, they could simple come the US and the government would except every single one.Using that excuse is moronic, because even you know it wouldn't happen, US dollars or not.

Re: Iron Dome: How Israeli defense system saved lives
I smell old Lichtenstein / flinkstein back

The rate on the total can be low, but they were only firing to shoot down the really dangerous ones.

Not true, you say? how is it then that only 5 people were killed by those - I repeat - state-of-the-art Iranian missiles?

Now try to guess who is the agit-prop here.

AlcoholicRunner, it really IS funny how utterly divorced from REALITY these Islamo-fascist sycophants & neo-Nazi are about virtually everything they spew.... just total Dunning-Kruger-ville!

Fact:

1) Iron Dome has NOTHING to do with the original Patriot.

2) In fact the newer Patriot (PAC-3) has very little in common with Patriot.

3) The ship-based SAM the troll awkwardly referred to, is Aegis SM-3, NOT Patriot.

4) Iron Dome is almost entirely Israel-developed system.

5) Iron Dome's intercept rate is NOT 4%, LOL. It's close to 90% rate and slowly rising every round since its first operational deployment in 2011. Granted, Israel still needs 3 times more batteries for full coverage, but even with limited coverage Gaza terrorists even tried salvos of 20 rockets and Iron Dome handled them well.

6) Israel has an X-Band radar in the Negev, it's the best radar in the world; why on earth it need "aircraft carrier" to somhow feed it more information? Makes no sense. In fact, because of Gaza location, even a smaller version of Israel's Green-Pine radar is more than enough. In fact, Iron Dome doesn't even use Green Pine, nevermind Super Green-pine or X-Band radars. It doesn't even use a Multi-Mission radar. Just MINI-version of the latter. LOL, shills be shillin'

7) Iron Dome has prevented a multi-BILLION dollar Gaza invasion the lasst round of fighting. That alone is makes the system a big economic bargain. That's not even counting its export potential to make Israel prohit in the longer-run.....

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28995602


Yeah, no kidding 1 of them was an Bedouin Arab close to the Gaza border where there was no protection of Iron Dome.

The other 3 were in Kiryat Malachi in the first day of war, when Iron Dome hadn't covered it.

And guess what? Those 3 Israeli victims in Kiryat Malachi IGNORED IDF instructions to go into the re-inforced stair-well inside their buildin. Instead like many other Israels they decided to watch the missile barrage fire-works from the window in their living room.

And the missile struck directly in the living room. Their children in next room survived but the idiot adults didn't.

And that's about all the casualties from the Israeli civilian side of things --- despite 1,400 rockets, including heavy ones like Fajr-5 and extended range (Chinese) Grads that were full of ball bearings, rusty nails and other "goodies" Gaza terrorists put inside rocket warhead in order to MAXIMIZE the shrapnel damage to Israeli kids & women.

And of course their launchers used special equipment to deliberately TARGET Israeli city centers. Israel is a small country, so 1,400 rockets at their population centers could have easily caused 100 deaths an several 100 badly injured. if not for Iron Dome intercepting ones with most dangerous trajectories & of course the bomb shelters built by Israel who actually cares about its people.

Wheras Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PRC, PFLP, AAMB and other Jihadi Alphabet-soul retards.... NOT only target Israeli civilians which is a War-Crime, by the way ----> but they do it in such a way that would MAXIMIZE Gaza civilian casualties in the event of any Israel retaliation.

Because, you see, for all their "freedom-fighting" rhetoric, all these Jihadi troglodytes care about is 72 Virgins & other promised goodies in Allah's Paradise.

As for their own children sacrificed in the process... well, Gaza Jihadis each have up to 4 wives not counting mistresses ---- so those glorified "baby-factory slaves" an pump out a few more kids, as far as they are concerned.

As Yassir Arafat famously said when asked what's the biggest weapon Palestinians have, "Ovaries [of Palestinian Mothers]"

Re: Iron Dome: How Israeli defense system saved lives
What happens when a nation is utterly protected by blocked lock and barrel and this:

Can not be penetrated

Can not be stopped from with out

Yet what is locked and barreled inside there...

Is more evil that what it blocked from it.

Say what would have been if not being mean saying this but sincere I am thinking this balanced on both views.

What would have been the out come of Nazi nations under a totally block out of all those nations who blocked them from what they were doing on the inside of their own nations.

And that is only one of the many other nations that had a hideous man stealer who was even a man slayer rise up from with in.....there own nation peoples and tongues.

They never go off and rise up in foreign territory where they have no power or place to stand.

What is it to think that it could never be....when we think this even before the next one comes and is?

This can be a thing that in future expansion and updating and fashioning......can lead to disaster.

Even though it may have been designed with peace and good in mind.

Does not the minds change .....by hands they change unto?

Lord God have mercy on all those who did not put their trust in man......for to do so will surly bring error then wounding then death all this that follows the error of their captivity that took them all captive.

I do not trust the nation I live in to block out all and seal us in...a kill box just sitting there for the day of evil to become from the evil that already is inside it.

This does not make me feel good nor do I find security or peace in it.

I may be long gone and dead....but my offspring may not be in that day.

Yes I know block a blow....block the many blows for security of the humans.

Yet this block is going to be and is in the wrong hands not even the hands we see in this news is hands enough to count them all.....

There is a way to give all hands what they all shall have...so none is standing empty handed.

But this does not mean they are good it just means they are not empty handed.

What, you really AREN'T aware that Gaza terror groups over the years have learned to synchronize & have indeed developed underground/concealed launchers based on TIMER --- seeing as Israel had gotten a little too good at eliminating the old-fashioned rocket-teams before they could launch.

Even Western intelligence for a quite a while didn't know that, for instance, Hamas not only had 10,000-20,000 + extended range, heavier Chinese Grads, but 100+ Fajr-3 and Fajr-5. In fact, despite arms blockade imposed by Israel, Hamas had managed to build their own extended-range rockets in relatively short period of time.

Israel apparently destroyed a SHIT-LOAD of (Iranian-built) because of excellent intelligence collected & innovative capabilites... but Hamas still managed to fire off 1,400 rockets that had the potential to reach Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, probably Haifa too. Do you doubt any of this? Even BBC, al-Jazeera could corroborate, LOL.

And yes, Hamas, Islamic Jihad ABSOLUTELY target Jewish kids coming and going from school with timed-barrages. They don't really try to conceal this fact. Why do you find this so "ridiculous" an idea? Hate to break it to you, pal, but you see, to them, Jew kids and pregnant women are rats and pigs and Satan's spawn. Watch Gaza TV some time, some clips are even on Youtube, you'll see some crazy-ass shit like 2-3 year olds reciting Adolf Hitler type stuff, and 5-6 year olds in full Hamas "martyr" regalia marching with plastic AK-47 in unison like it was a Jihadi version of a North Korean parade for Dear Leader....

LOL, are you familiar with Palestinian disney characters like Farfour the Suicide Mickey Mouse, or Assud the Jew-Eating Rabbit -- or that Jew-stinging Bee I forget the name of at the moment....? Youtube took thew worst, most egregiously violent ones down for "incetement to genocide" reasons, I guess, but some milder versions from Hamas TV still are out there.

Here I even embedded a couple of them in this the below

Thread: BREAKING Ceasefire 'broken proper': Israel bombs Deir Al-Balah (Page 15)

What, maybe you doubt the veracity of my claim that Palestinian "McFreedom-fighters" try to MAXIMIZE the horrific wounds of Israeli kids by putting ball bearings, rusty nails, etc into both the warhead of their rockets and before that, into suicide-belts. Hell, when they had access, they even used to dip those shrapnel-pieces into the bodily fluids of AIDS patients, before putting them into more primitive Qassam rockets.... Nice, huh?

And you know, it would be easy to conventiently blame it all on a few "bad apples" from Hamas or Islamic Jihad -- as limp-wristed, Saudi-bribed European elites have been trying to do for years..... Real easy.

Except it's NOT just a few bad apples or religous fanatics. It's prevalent in their culture. You know that family in Itamar in 2010 that was murdered in their sleep, including 3 children, inlcuding a 3-month old baby that was essentially decapitaed in its crib? It wasn't Osama Bin Laden or Ahmed Jaabari who did. It was a couple of Arab TEEN-AGERS from neighboring village, who just had to kill them some Jews. They weren't affiliated with any terror group. I mean their entire families raised them in them in total hatred of Jews, but that's about the extent of their involvement in terror groups or lack threof.

And those 2 teenagers were and are still proud of what they did. During trial, not an OUNCE of remorse. They only regret they were able to murder only one Jewish family -- instead of more.

Just small example. There are many, many more. Remember, most terror attempts thankfully FAIL -- either stopped by the Security Barrier, which the world initially condemned Israel over construction of.... or by the excellent work by Israel's security, Shin Bet and IDF. Plus, mostly Left-leaning policitically-correct Israeli media cover up for Palestinian attacks, unless they are too gruesome to ignore like the Itamar one I described above.

In other words, it's certainly NOT for lack of Palestinians trying that so far Muslims haven't quite been able to literally terrorize Jews out of the land of Israel.

Or maybe.... you just don't give a shit, ah yes: the infamous lazy "just as bad" NON-arguement that is the last refuge of the terminally uninformed/apathetic.

You know, if you had any sense whatsoever, you'd read my original post and went "hmm, I don't know about ALL that...." --- and went on your merry way, so to speak, like most people do about most topics they encounter through-out the day. I mean, nobody asked for your pointless contribution.

But noo, you just had to try to make a funneh... not to mention use an idiotic analogy with assault-weapons ban debate within the US.

Now F' off. Next.

That's actually...NOT...true.

It's an extremely common fallacy/falsehood that's parroted by the lazy & the stupid.

And sadly, even the smart Conspiracy Theorists are not immune to take something as highly complex/debatable as the quoteed supposition...and treating as gospel, like some sort of 'Corporate Commandment' almost.

I mean, in the context of the Great Depression... World War 2 did come along rather fortuitously -- if I can call that ALL-TIME HORRIFIC MEAT-GRINDER using a word like "fortuitous".... America did get off relatively, um, easy on the whole. But even then, I don't think it's right to take all the positive reforms & economic booms that came in the 1950's in US and later Japan/Western Europe --- and then turn it into some a giant conspiracy... In fact it would be downright RETARDED to do that.

Small example: 2nd Lebanon War. It was grossly mismanaged by the Leftists in charge of Israel at the time, and of course whatever 11th gains by Israel, were effectively wiped out by the ever-so-judicious "International Community"...

Well, was that war good for the economy? Lebanon has never recovered since despite billions of dollars infused by Iran, Saudis, Qatar and the EU to rebuild.... And it cost Israeli economy estimated 5.5 billion dollars, which is a LOT of money for such a tiny state, with no oil revenue.

So I bet if you were to ask either Lebanese OR Israelis whether the 5-week 2006 adventure was worth it, they'd both probably throw something at you. Hell, even Hezbollah that started that conflict, well their shit-talking leader Hassan Nasrallah admitted on TV afterwards that had he known how harsh Israeli response would be, he would NOT have ordered the kidnapping of 2 IDF soldiers. I mean, even a jihadi fanatic Hassan Nasrallah understands that wars are no fun for anyone.

War is only good for weapons-makers, and even then it's not always the case --- if the war leads to terrible economic slowdown, military budgets could be shrink big-time ----> not to mention, all sorts of Congressional investigations could be launched to investigate just what was the role of the Military-Industrial Complex and their lobbyists & friends overseas, in the war..... What, it COULD happen, right? Right? LOL :)

 Quoting: Sneetch


See, I have fundamental faith in people, especially in the West, being able to be persuaded with reason and facts.

That is the reason why I even BOTHER with you. I think your original post to be was classless, but otherwise I think you're smart enough to understand the (larger) point.

That said, you lost me on the following:

1) Neglecting Bin Laden was my whole point. While this was before my time, being a student of history I can tell you for sure that back then, people like you who proudly "don't care"... were the majority. I mean, Americans must have heard about semi-retarded gang-raped Palestinian girls being out-fitted with suicide-bombs and then told by religious clerics to atone for their sins by pushing that little button while in a middle of a Israeli bus, cafes, discos, shopping malls, synagogues.....But to most Americans in their mommy's cozy basement bankging away at the keyboard while 10,000, it all probably seemed like a surreal movie plot. Bill Clinton had numerous chances to get Bin Laden in the 90s, but I guess he was too busy cigar-banging fat interns & bombing Serbia for ratings......

And then 9/11 woke a lot of people up, world-wide about how Jihad is NOT just "an Israeli" problem. That "Muslim freedom-fighters" are in fact evil, uber-selfish MONSTERS....

Alas, now it's 11 years later, and a whole NEW generation of Twitter Tards is growing up with that "1990's" Ostrich head-in-sand thinking with respect to Islam in particular & Totalitarianism in general....

2) Your George W. Bush-esque "Brinh it On" comment. No offense, but please don't be retarded. You would NOT survive for 5 minutes with a member of Islamic Jihad. I am no stranger to martial arts myself, but when you're up against someone who

a) not only is not afraid to die, but WANTS to die to get 72 virgins

b) is both high on drugs AND is pumped full of steroids

c) while totting AK-47, grendates and even ATGM...

Enabling anti-rocket/missile defence in saturated airspace

"The problem is huge - and growing. The stakes are high - and growing. The complexity is almost unpredicted - and growing.

All the above describes the situation in which a country has to defend itself from rockets, long range ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, attacking aircraft and armed unmanned air vehicles - and all while passenger and cargo aircraft continue to fly in and out on schedule.

Iron Dome, David's Sling, Arrow-2 - all these are systems that launch projectiles designed to defend Israel from the above-mentioned threats.

The problem is twofold - how to use such a multi-layered defence system efficiently, and how to enable the coexistence of civil aviation in an area that is so heavily defended.

Rafael, a leading Israeli developer of advanced defence systems, took the challenge, and what it offers now is its Modular Integrated C4I (MIC4AD) system, which is supposed to put all the elements in order, kill the right target efficiently and still allow air traffic to move in the skies with minimum disturbance...."
