In response Israeli attacks Iran has launched hundreds of ballistic missiles towards Israel on its nuclear sites and senior military personnel. Shocking target To the ground.
Although Israel stopped many of the missiles coming from the MIS missile, many violated its rescue, which caused significant damage and accidents with hits in the central oil Aviv and other areas.
The exact size of the Iranian Ballistic missile arsenal is unclear, but it is considered to be the largest and most advanced in the region.
In the visual explanation below, al -Jazzar unpack how the ballistic missiles work and how they are being used in the ongoing conflict.
How do Ballistic missiles work?
Ballistic missiles are long -haul weapons designed for the distribution of traditional or nuclear war by ways of ballistic or curved.
Launched using a powerful rocket engine, these missiles shoot in the upper environment or even in the space, traveling amazingly high speeds. Once their engine is cut off, the missile follows the prefabricated path, which re -entered the earth’s atmosphere in a tall race before hitting it.
How far can they travel?
Ballistic missiles can travel a few kilometers to more than 10,000 kilometers in volume.
Ballistic missiles are classified on the basis of their categories:
- Battlefield Range Balistic missile (BRBM) – less than 200 km (124 miles)
- Short-Range Ballistic missile (SRBM) – less than 1,000 km (621 miles)
- Medium/Intermediate-Roj Ballistic missile (MRBM/IRBM) -1000 km to 3,500 km (621-2,175 miles)
- Long Ballistic missile (LRBM) Between -3,500 km to 5,500 km (2,175-3,418 miles)
- Intercontinental Balistic missile (ICBM) – More than 5,500 km (3,418 miles)
What speed can they reach?
Ballistic missiles travel extremely fast, allowing them to travel thousands of kilometers in minutes.
The speed they travel is calculated in the match, which is equal to the speed of the sound; For example, Mach 5 is five times more than the speed of the sound.
Some, generally, small-range, ballistic missiles reaches supersonic motion (Mach 1, or about 1,225 km/h or 761 miles per hour), while others can travel at a long-haul missile, hypersensitone speed-more than 5 (6,125 km/h or 3,806MP).
How long will it take Iran’s missile to reach Israel?
The distance between Iran and Israel is about 1,300 km to 1,500 km (800-930 miles). Ballistic missiles in Iran traveling at Mach 5 can reach Israel in approximately 12 minutes, though the exact time depends on the type of missile and launch site.
Why is it difficult to interfere with ballistic missiles?
What makes the ballistic missiles especially dangerous is how difficult it is to have their long range, high speed and interface.
Their fast, high flight path gives some time to react to the defense system, and when they re -enter the atmosphere, they go down more faster and make the interruption even more difficult. Some missiles also deploy Decoises or other counters to deceive radar and missile defense, making it difficult to interpret.
What is the difference between the ballistic and the cruise missile?
Iran has also used cruise missiles against Israel. Unlike the ballistic missiles, cruise missiles fly less and steady like pilotless plane, which helps them to protect the previous air. Although they travel far more than the ballistic missiles, the interfaces take more time to protect the air, but their low flight paths make it difficult to find them. Their tactics can vary to them, fly around the obstacles, and allow the missile to defend.
Ballistic missiles in Iran can reach Israel in about minutes, but the cruise missile can take about two hours and the drones may take nine hours.
Iran’s missile arsenal
Iran has developed a range of ballistic and cruise missiles in the last three decades. The graphics below have a summary of some of Iran’s major things क्षेपणास्त्र And their range.
Israeli’s missile arsenal
Israel has an advanced missile arsenal, which includes long haul and nuclear-capable systems developed in the decade. American support?? The following graphics highlight some of the remarkable missiles of Israel with their related categories.
What are Israel’s aerial airport capabilities?
The Israeli Air Defense depends on what is known as the iron dome system, which is equipped with a radar that looks for the incoming launch, as well as its speed and direction.
Other systems interpret medium and long -haul missiles. David’s sling hindered missiles between 40 km (25 miles) to 300 km (186 miles). The aero system disrupts missiles up to 2,400 km (1,491 miles).
