Israel's air defense system doesn't seem to be very effective either! Within just a few hours of the conflict, Iran broke through Israel's air defense system! On February 28, Israel's 12th channel reported that Iran's retaliatory strike caused damage. Iranian missiles attacked a nine-story building in northern Israel, causing serious destruction, and the explosion fragments created a large pit on the road in front of the community.
In fact, Israel has always been proud of its Iron Dome system. This multi-layered anti-missile and air defense system has cost over $100 billion in research, deployment, and daily interception. However, facing Iran's counterattack, it was unexpectedly breached by Iranian missiles within just a few hours of the conflict. This seems to indicate two points from another perspective. First, the casualties caused by the United States and Israel to Iran were not enough, and Iran still retained considerable counterattack capabilities.
The second is that Israel underestimated the penetration capability of Iranian missiles. The "golden armor" built with over $100 billion by Israel had already proven to be unable to withstand saturation attacks, and now even missiles with low density cannot be intercepted. If the conflict continues in this direction, Israel may pay a much higher price than expected. At this point, Israel probably feels like it is burning itself.
