When Iran launches a ballistic missile from Isfahan toward Israel, it faces the world's most robust and advanced defense barriers.
First, it encounters U.S. forces stationed in Iraq, French Rafale fighters deployed in the UAE (permitted to use Saudi airspace), and U.S. aircraft carriers like the USS Carl Vinson, along with state-of-the-art missile destroyers patrolling the Gulf.
If the missile breaches these layers, it faces Jordan's air force, U.S. troops in Jordan, and British Royal Air Force Typhoon and F-35 fighters operating from Cyprus, all ready to intercept.
Should it evade these defenses, Israel's air defense system, *Arrow-3*, attempts to neutralize it in space from 2,000 kilometers away. If that fails, *Arrow-2* targets the missile between 1,500 and 500 kilometers as it re-enters the atmosphere.
If the missile still persists, the *David’s Sling* system pursues it from 300 to 40 kilometers.
As a final line of defense, the *Iron Dome* engages the missile within a 70 to 4-kilometer range, making every effort to shoot it down.
Consider this: does any other country's missile face such formidable and layered obstacles to reach its target? Remarkably, Iran's ballistic missiles are entirely domestically developed, while countering them involves the most advanced and expensive technologies from the U.S., France, the UK, and Israel.
Despite this formidable and complex defense network, Iranian missiles sometimes manage to evade interception and reach their targets. This is considered Iran's greatest success in this conflict.
