yeah, never been in the military so these defense systems on this scale are a mystery to me. this iron dome system seems to work rather well. what's it about? my civilian mind thinks it just tosses out a large number of defensive missiles at once based on radar picking up an incoming air strike. simply put, like a giant shotgun. do they use it on aircraft targets also, or just missiles? here's the self depreciating disclaimer...i'm an idiot on this stuff.
