Israel's missile defense systems were put to the test as close to 200 ballistic missiles were launched from Iran, demonstrating the need for advanced interception systems.
While the Iron Dome intercepts short-range rockets, missile systems like David's Sling and Arrow 2 and 3 specifically target advanced ballistic threats with greater ranges and speeds.
David's Sling is capable of intercepting medium and long-range missiles with a striking range of 25 to 186 miles, using a 'hit-to-kill' method.
In April, Israel's defense systems intercepted 99% of over 300 incoming projectiles from Iran, showcasing the effectiveness of its layered missile defense strategy.
