    Iron Dome deals with slow dumb rockets with expended fuel falling on ballistic trajectory, Pantsir handles that without a problem (on top of it's regular job of shooting down fast manoeuvring targets)

    The pantsir missiles are just a fraction of the cost of one israeli interceptor.

    However iron dome is crdated to counter hamas level of bombing not a conventional milotary bombing. A group or brigade or whatever it is called of bm-21 can launch 700 rockets at once and they are faster than those hamas small rockets.

    Also it is not really made to counter ballistic or cruise missiles which can easily yake out the radar.

    We also need to see how it works in heavy jamming.

    Pantsir was killing MLRS rockets with gun rounds, it didn't need missiles

    There is footage of it from Syria

    No beating that bang for the buck

    Was going through some of the posts in this thread where members are suggesting that Russia needs a weapon system similar to Iron Dome.

    To my mind, the only advantage of Iron Dome for Russia is that it creates conditions for enhanced freedom of action for decision makers. Iron Dome will ensure that they have time, and are not compelled to resort automatically to preemption and retaliation. That aside, this is an incredibly costly weapon. The cost of interception is high. The cost of the interceptor missile is about $40,000-50,000. Furthermore, in some cases, two interceptor missiles are fired at one target, which further raises the cost of interception.

    https://www.inss.org.il/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/systemfiles/MASA5-1Eng4_Shapir.pdf

    Furthermore, Iron Dome has a “saturation point.” It is capable of engaging a certain (unpublished) number of targets at the same time, and no more. Additional rockets fired in a crowded salvo could succeed in breaching defenses and cause damage. As the [Iron Dome] radar is forced to dwell on more rockets it has less time to scan for new objects and has to wait longer before returning to each rocket, which lessens the quality of the trajectory calculation.

    @KreatelyOSINT

    After making it clear that Israel is working on to establish a long-term peace, Israel now has rejected the proposal of the Egyptian negotiators for a truce with the Palestinian factions for a period of one year.


    Egypt opens Rafah border crossing for admission of injured from Gaza Strip .

    The Sinai Peninsula hospitals were switched to a round-the-clock operation and medics had their days off cancelled, as Gaza Strip hospitals fail under the influx of the injured.

    Could the more well versed members in military affairs comment on Israel's success from a military point of view?

    I am getting the idea that this is more of a punitative expedition than anything else (in line with the leaked Dahiyeh Doctrine, docs can be found on Wikileaks)

    The number of slain enemies seems to be rather low so far and many of their targets are civilian infrastructure - apparantly chosen to break the will of the Palestinians/ take away domestic support for HAMAS.

    Some problems have no solutions. The present situation in Palestine is one of them. So we are left with the status quo. War and killing and expulsions and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

    It seems to me that no outside power, including the resistance front, will intervene directly. So it is for the Palestinians to protect themselves. With what they have. It is easy to give advice, but difficult to carry out in practice.

    The Palestinian houses have no shelter. The Usraeli houses do. If the Palestinians can dig tunnels for supply, then why can they not dig shelters? And why can they not build Rockets that evade interception?  Easy to construct from non-metalic materials. And easy to give these Rockets slight Perturbations in flight path, to avoid interception. And easy to change warheads to pierce concrete, with present weight of warhead. The resistance front can supply them. By land and sea and Air ( drone supply)...

    The At4 or SMAW anti-fortification warheads can be copied for Palestinian Rocket. Iraqis and Lebanese have access to these.

    @ Elconquistadore

    I think it is methodical annihilation or intelligent ethnic cleansing. When did we ever hear about a couple of Palestinian families who left to become refugee?  The Usraelis carry out this genocide slowly, but methodically. So that the event goes under the Radar of news or public perception. I guess they learned their tricks from the Germans in WW2, where the Jews were under the impression, they were going on holiday in a train and many Germans and the world was ignorant of the Nazi crimes........

    With all that's going on internally and the reinvigoration of Palestinian identity across Israel, the West Bank, Gaza and beyond, I wonder if Mahmoud Abbas, the abator of nationalist Israeli colonization in his territory - has much time left

    Or for that matter the collaborator of Israel in Jordan, King Startrek.

    Like Abbas has done nothing but make statements during Israeli suppression of his people on West Bank territory, so too has Israeli action at the Al-Aqsa mosque undermined the authority of the Jordanians who are supposed to be the custodians there. They haven't done shit

    Not confirmed ,the ambulance cars from Egypt which entered Gaza belong to the Egyptian army and some sources said if IDF targeted it that means a direct attack on the Egyptian army , if happened a quick fireback action will be taken .

    To my mind, the only advantage of Iron Dome for Russia is that it creates conditions for enhanced freedom of action for decision makers. Iron Dome will ensure that they have time, and are not compelled to resort automatically to preemption and retaliation.

    Amusing people suggesting Russia needs Iron Dome... Russia is just fine and has all the tools it needs to defend itself from external threats.

    Israel on the other hand has to worry about internal and external threats.

    If you look at the maps above it is pretty clear to anyone what is happening...

    Iron dome is something you use if you have not got an operational IADS and you need to wing it...

    Russian systems can target mortars/shells/rockets for a longtime now.

    In the west that was impossible untill iron dome.

    All togather it's a good system that answers a specifical need.

    A single tor would be easier to overwhelm but it has other advantages like mobility and precision or lauch wheb moving.

    Those are systems not some sort of magical stuff with superpower.

    Presumably the ID radars are working their socks off trying to keep up. The obvious tactic, if you have the munitions, would be to pop a few radar homimg missiles into the attacking mix.

    And that is the point... against a decent enemy it would be totally ineffective because it could be targeted directly.

    Against a fenced in oppressed enemy that can't buy what they want or need then it can shoot down the odd target... and the lack of sophistication of the threat means even if a few get through odds are they wont be devastating...

    Against a more competent enemy they would be in real trouble.

    Well at least Russia's public stance is the right one, unlike the stance of some Arabs who abandoned the Palestinians, Israel is not really looking to exterminate Hamas, Hamas existing serves many goals the Israeli's put out, the groups in Gaza said they can go on for 60 days non stop ... a hard (X)doubt on that one.

    Egypt hosting Hamas families ? won't set well with many Egyptians as they believe Hamas are behind terrorist activates in Sinai peninsula.

    As a conclusion in points :

    Israeli AD completely failed today to intercept Hamas rockets over Tel-Aviv , they have maintainace problems to work in a long war.
    https://twitter.com/ib_ree/status/1393520522303000576

    Hamas has a bigger rockets on this war that can reach most of Usrael cities ,can fire them on big numbers and they know better now how to escape from IAF . Also Hamas started using suicide drones

    The Egyptian and Jordnanian reactions are better and serious than last wars ,this is the first time Egypt warned to host Hamas families and to freeze other relations with Usrael .

    Usrael can't protect their airports ,ports,power plants ,electricity lines and their entire cities.

    As i said on post 234  Usrael is  weak , in any war the country will completely shutdown ,anything there is exposed to even small rockets which could be fired in big numbers to exhaust any AD .

    0 aircraft recorded over Usrael. Laughing

    Egypt hosting Hamas families ? won't set well with many Egyptians as they believe Hamas are behind terrorist activates in Sinai peninsula.

    That's something different .Some members on Hamas may tried to support MB inside Egypt ,because Hamas needs a support ,it makes sense .

    But the palestinian resistance existance is important to Egypt which considered Usrael as the first enemy .
