Iron Dome is the best known defense system. We hear about it all the time - it was designed for defence from Hamas and Hezbollah - the idiots on Israel's doorstep.
The lesser known systems were in action here.
David's Sling - a midrange system designed to tackle ballistic missiles from as far as 124 miles away, as well as aircraft, drones and cruise missiles.
Arrow - The highest-level defense system has two partsâArrow 2 and 3âand is designed to intercept missiles flying outside Earth's atmosphere.
It was designed with an Iranian missile threat in mind, and was used on Oct. 31, 2023, during an operation over the Red Sea, where it intercepted a surface-to-surface missile fired toward Israel.

Iron Dome wasn't designed to intercept ballistic missiles.
also: "the software in air defense systems allows for threat rockets to get through if they are going for areas that are not critical (desert, open field, etc..)."
Iran must be jealous of all the attention from Israel that their proxies Hamas, Hezbollah and now the Houthis have received. Their turn will come. Guaranteed.
Seems their "Iron Dome" wasn't deployed there; or failed miserably.
