Iran's recent launch of approximately 180 high-speed ballistic missiles at Israel illustrates a significant escalation in their military strategy, aiming to deliver serious damage and test Israel's missile defenses.
The sheer speed of Iran's ballistic missiles poses a significant challenge for interception. The Emad and Ghadr missiles can exceed six times the speed of sound, complicating defensive measures.
Despite firing a large number of missiles, initial reports indicate a military failure for Iran with no fatalities in Israel and only one casualty in the West Bank, raising questions about interception effectiveness.
Iran maintains a substantial arsenal of estimated 3,000 ballistic missiles, and the recent use of hypersonic technology indicates a deliberate strategy to overwhelm Israel's defense systems, which are costly and uncertain.
