New Delhi: After the Iron Dome, Israel is now going to have another deadly weapon. The name of this weapon is Iron Beam. Israel hopes that Iron Beam will be operational within a year. This weapon will start a new era of war in the Middle East. Iron Beam is capable of destroying missiles and rockets through laser.

Iron beam is extremely dangerous

Israel has spent more than $500 million on Iron Beam. Currently, the responsibility of Israel's air defense lies with Iron Dome, David's Sling and Arrow Defense. All these air defense systems are capable of destroying missiles in the air itself. But many times the missiles of Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran have exposed these defense systems. This is the reason why Israel is now going to adopt more lethal weapons.

Iron Beam has been developed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Elbit Systems. This system is capable of shooting down drones, mortars, missiles and rockets. These days Israel is being attacked from six fronts. In such a situation, Iron Beam will prove to be effective for Israel. It has the power to attack at the speed of light.

How will the system work?

According to the Israeli Defense Minister, Iron Beam will shoot down short-range projectiles. Ballistic missiles and large attacks will be shot down by Arrow-2 and Arrow-2. Drones are very small. They do not even come under the radar's radar. Because of this, Iron Dome also gets fooled. But Iron Beam will shoot down even small drones. A laser beam will be released from the system towards the target. It will heat up the enemy drones and rockets in a short time and destroy them in the sky itself.

Israel has been fighting a war for a year

Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October last year. Since then Israel has been fighting a war with Hamas in Gaza. At the same time, a war with Hezbollah is also going on on the northern border. More than 42 thousand people have lost their lives in Gaza so far. Thousands of civilians have also died in Lebanon. Israel and Iran attacked each other. Since then tension has increased in the Middle East. In view of the increasing tension, the US has ordered the deployment of B-52 bombers, fighter jets, refueling aircraft and destroyers.
