Israel has completed tests of the upgraded version of the Iron Dome air defense missile defense system

Israel has completed tests of the modernized Iron Dome anti-aircraft missile defense system. This was reported by the press service of the country's Defense Ministry.

According to the report, the test cycle was carried out at one of the test sites in the south of the country. The Israeli Air Force and Air Defense, as well as the US Air Force, took part in the tests. It is emphasized that the modernized complex managed to carry out the simultaneous interception of a group drones, as well as repel rocket and mortar salvos.

A series of tests (...) demonstrated a significant upgrade of the technological capabilities of the system. The Iron Dome was tested in difficult conditions, successfully intercepting and destroying targets that simulate emerging complex threats, including the simultaneous interception of several UAVs, as well as a massive missile salvo

- said in a statement.

The Defense Ministry said that the updated complex will be adopted by the Air Force and Navy units of the IDF, as well as installed on the Israeli Saar-6 corvettes.

At the beginning of last year, the Israeli Defense Ministry announced the creation of a state-of-the-art laser air defense system, which will complement the existing Iron Dome missile defense system by shooting down guided missiles and drones. The tests were scheduled for 2021.

The video is beautiful

A consumable is not expensive?
So you can go broke.

[Puler]

about the chosen ones it is badly impossible ... a warning or immediately banned ... about the Russians you can ...

[UVB]

Interestingly, and from among those involved in the creation of the complex, what is the proportion of former citizens of the USSR / RF?

Very small. The older generation has no security clearance, the new generation ... Hmm, 30 years have passed since the collapse of the USSR. The one who went to school there is now under 40.

Laser air defense - what are you doing real? Or as we only have cartoons ... if my memory serves me, we really amused you with the statement that we created a laser air defense complex ... you had so much ridicule!

Real, but so far completely primitive and ineffective.

[vitvit123]

Well, your business is better than ours ... we have cartoons in general and we will never, in this matter, catch up with you ..
Honestly, that comment was not addressed to you and you do not want to write sarcastically.

Whoever does not do laser air defense. From news for 2 days https://www.defensenews.com/
The Americans are testing a buggy laser somewhere.

The British have improved the characteristics of their

The Turks are accelerating their development.

And so the United States is already serially putting laser weapons on ships, called ODIN.

To understand what the main problem of Peresvet is, you need to look at it completely.

[vitvit123]

You did not understand the sarcasm addressed to the professor. He made fun of us when Putin said that we have laser weapons. And not only he, but also some of his fellow countrymen ... even then it was clear that this direction was developing and many countries were engaged in this, and some of them would soon have such weapons, and we were ahead of others. But they wanted to make fools of us in every possible way. I try to remind them of this in every possible way ...

Yes, Hoffman was also 12 years old at the time of repatriation.

Well, I don't know what to say, they invited the young girl and left. And they immediately called for the service .. Maybe there are admissions, but according to the status of the ranks ..

as well as a massive missile salvo

Water pipes again?

[dzvero]

Water pipes again?

And why do they not suit you? If there is no more water in them, then 1) they are no longer needed and 2) it is a sin not to let them go to the rockets. They will fly better than full ones

[dimz]

It's even a little offensive for the bears. Rockets into model airplanes - monsters.

[leon1204id]

Very competent air defense. Another previous version did not shoot at ballistic targets that could not fall on populated areas. And now you can see the radar and speed have been tightened, the automation of the response salvo. About the parading of a flock of UAVs, this is relevant. Although our specialists went their own way: air defense derivation, Mercury, Terminator.

[Avior]

Another previous version did not shoot at ballistic targets that could not fall on populated areas.

It is expensive to shoot down cheap missiles that threaten no one

[Thrifty]

As always, missiles fly at non-maneuvering targets, and the Hausites have long learned how to shoot down like that! They made fun of the laser, I remember there were articles on the topvar, where they shouted that the Israelis would not only create a combat laser before anyone else in the world, but also put it into service! Only, the matter does not move further than low-power lasers, there are many more problems in reality than thought. ...

[Klingon]

Well, they can't maneuver the shells from MLRS, drones can but weakly, these are not some kind of FPV racing quadcopters. The downing of cruise missile simulators was not shown at all.
I just think that if you bungle a kamikaze drone based on a racing FPV quadric, then any air defense system, oh, how tight it will have to

[Klingon]

it is interesting to calculate the price-consumption of Dome rockets and the price-consumption of unguided projectiles from BM-21 and similar systems. Who is the winner? I think the shells from the RMZO are clearly cheaper than the dome rockets ..
and if the warhead is cassette, then how to shoot down? Or does he catch it from before opening the cassettes?

[OgnennyiKotik]

If this system saves at least 1 life, all costs will pay off.
And since the missiles are relatively cheap, the United States plans to buy them for its C-RAM. If you read the economy, you need to add the possible damage to the equation.

[Klingon]

and if the warhead is cassette, then how to shoot down? Or does he catch them, shells from MLRS before opening the cassettes? those. not at the terminal section of the trajectory?

shells from MLRS catches before opening cassettes?

Of course, the video is shown.

will pay off in what terms?
in math? metaphysical?
I understand, "it's not worth one tear of a child," and so on.
but to put it in precise language, not metaphors?

H'm. Getting NURS into a residential building will lead to much higher material costs, even if no one is hurt.

[hirurg]

And what if there are a lot of such attacks with cheap drones and MLRS?
Will this lead to depletion of the Dome?
Tactically, it can be good, and against a very weak opponent. But strategically ...
Therefore, the solution must be comprehensive, selective and layered.

[Vitaly gusin]

And you admit that there will be many, many, and Israel will only wait and shoot down, will try to make every effort so that many, many will turn into VERY LITTLE.
How do you understand that you are shown the means of protection.

[hirurg]

Yes, I admit, and the Israelis themselves should admit it.
And what I saw ...
This is from a cannon to the sparrows (in terms of finance)
The Saudis also did not admit it.

[Vitaly gusin]

Quote: hirurg

You admit that you do not have information, but the UAE, Bahrain, not officially the Saudis, Azerbaijan suddenly fell in love with Israel. And on BV they love STRONG , but they have the weak.

[hirurg]

If you already don't admit it ... Well, well. The stronger your disappointment will be.

[rocket757]

And what now .... but nothing, we have our own effective.
We will continue at the same pace.

[mvg]

Enviable. If it is true that the cost of a shot of the Iron Saucepan was increased from $ 40 thousand to $ 10 thousand, then it is generally beautiful.

[OgnennyiKotik]

Even $ 40 is very cheap. The US has purchased these missiles for its MULTI-MISSION LAUNCHER MML, is being tested. An interesting system, runs hellfires, stingers, AIM-9 i.e. everything that fits into the container.

[V1er]

These systems will be supplied to the Americans. Also, Israel takes part in the development of the US missile defense system. That is, it will all be against Russia. You should know this.

[rocket757]

So what? Such systems cannot completely hide from a global vigorous strike, for objective reasons. Neither we, not them, no one can do this .... something fundamentally new is needed.
But then again, well, while this new thing appears, the shock systems will also probably move to another, higher level.
The eternal confrontation between sword and shield.

[V1er]

Dear fellow Israelis. Last time for such a comment, I caught -10 minuses. What would you say if we helped Iran develop its missile defense, nuclear program and hypersonic missiles? Would you consider Russia your friend?

The Russian Federation sold to Iran the S-300PMU2 from the list of its armed forces. I am ready to sell military and transport aircraft, tanks, and whatever. China supplies the Persians directly or indirectly with missile technologies, threatening to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in them. What is the actual problem, what is itching for you?
Israel participates in the creation of the US missile defense system, and vice versa. This is called cooperation. The Jews also wrote millions of lines of software code for the F-35 ..

Why "if"? You are helping Iran develop its missile defense, nuclear program and hypersonic missiles. And yes, the Russian Federation is not a friendly state towards Israel. Look at the vote of the Russian Federation in the UN. She did not miss ANY anti-Israeli resolution. The Russian Foreign Minister calls the terrorists on whose hands the blood of hundreds of Israeli children is "our dear friends." Why are you surprised at all?

[V1er]

Why "if"? You are helping Iran develop its missile defense system

I understand you perfectly well in this situation. But still, there is no big news that Russia and Iran are developing missile defense together. That Russia is helping in the creation of the early warning system of Iran. What, we are transferring not finished products, but some kind of technology.

We do not have cooperation with Iran. We do not have joint developments that we put into service. Israel and the United States have them. Starting with a trophy and ending with a dome, arrows, similar systems. Israel is equipping the United States with its technology. And the United States dreams of destroying Russia. By the word "destroy" I do not mean nuclear ashes, but specifically to create a colony, a completely slave state, like Ukraine.

Already progress, do not argue that you are not creating missile defense for fanatics. I didn't hold a candle to "technologies", but in a strange way they have copies of your systems.

[Nest]

And what if each drone or NURS will have two or three cheap but powerful jammers operating at the frequency (s) of the Iron Dome radar pulse when tracking a target. Plus, they will not turn on immediately, but at a random time in the middle of the flight path to the target ... Will the Dome be able to track the target so accurately in such conditions? Powerful transmitters are now compact and cheap.

[Puler]

rude ... like the previous dome, which gloomy uneducated Arabs regularly perforated with acylene balloon bombs cooked in a cave, at night ... and recently in the border areas, factory weapons, old but factory ones, have been noticed ...

[Krasnodar]

Another ridiculous artifice of the Zionists with American money, made by human exploitation of the Chinese, called the Leaky Dome, shows the final failure of the imperialist project called "Israel".
Iranian third-graders, wiping their whiskers wet from laughter, point their fingers at expensive and useless Jewish missiles that even a 5th generation Persian plane cannot detect.
All highly developed leaders of the national liberation movement, from the Gaza Strip and Yemen to Mogadishu and Pyongyang, thanks to proper education, understand the futility of attacking well-protected military facilities of decaying capitalist countries, so the weapon of righteous anger is directed at the industrial infrastructure and colonial settlements of the enemy, and all of their figs protect

Now you are supplying the Banderaites with weapons, again soon blood will be shed and spilled in the Donbass ..
