Israeli new missile defence in action

[Crusader74]

Israel's new Iron Dome mobile short-range missile defence system was used in a combat operation for the first time on Thursday, Israeli officials say.

A battery located near the southern coastal town of Ashkelon brought down what was thought to be a Grad rocket fired from the Gaza Strip.

Winning.

Really cool, but I would label that more of a defensive operation vice a combat one.

Is it patriot based?

Good to see it work in a real world operation. Congrats to the guys that made the system.
