It all depends on the direction they fly ๐Ÿ˜‰

It would be hilarious if they could disprove the myth of the invincibility, of the iron dome. Israel is banking hard on that. Many westoids think they could easily intercept the entirety of the Iranian missile arsenal.

There's finite amount of ammunition available for the iron dome, and once it's depleted then it's gg well played because the west lacks the industrial capacity to produce missiles quickly. It's going to be exactly the same crisis as we see with artillery shells in Ukraine right now. It also appears that Israel managed to waste a lot of their missiles early on intercepting the pop rockets that Hamas launches from Gaza.
