Israel's Iron Dome defense system, operational since 2011, is effective against short-range rockets, with a claimed success rate of 90%. The system uses miniature sensors and computerized guidance in its interceptors, which are 6 inches wide and 10 feet long.
Israel requested the U.S. for more precision-guided munitions and interceptors for the Iron Dome system after facing an attack. President Biden hinted at restricting arms sales if civilian casualties warnings are not observed, but ensured defensive weapons like Iron Dome will remain unaffected.
