"Operation Enduring rock": missiles and missile defense
Yesterday, 09:12
Confrontation in the Middle East once again came to open conflict and fighting. For several days in a row the Israeli Air Force during "Operation Enduring rock" bomb various targets in the Gaza Strip, and a military wing of Hamas responsible launching numerous rockets into Israeli towns. Israeli armed forces are ready at any time to start a ground operation, the purpose of which will be the destruction of the enemy leaders of the organization. According to some, may soon be called upon to several tens of thousands of reservists. Several thousand people have joined the ranks of the army. However, so far not launched a ground operation, and all the main events take place with the participation of Israeli and Palestinian missile aviation.



On Monday night, the Israeli army destroyed several militant organization Hamas, to which she responded ordinary aggressive statements, followed by a new attacks against Israeli territory. According to Hamas, on Tuesday night July 8 at Israeli towns were released a few dozen missiles. The Israeli military, in turn, say about 20 unguided munitions, some of which were successfully intercepted. Later shelling continued with renewed vigor. On average rocket soar every 8-10 minutes.

July 10 passed an emergency UN Security Council session devoted to the ongoing conflict. During this event, Permanent Representative of Israel to the UN Ron Prosor read about rocket attacks. According to him, in the first three days of the conflict, Hamas military wing carried 442 launch rockets at targets inside Israel. In addition, R. Prosor said that the disposal of the enemy has at least 10 thousand missiles of various types. In this regard, Israel's envoy to the UN Security Council called on to condemn the actions of Palestinian militants and support the right to self-defense of his country.

July 11 there were new reports of rocket attacks. At this time, several rockets were launched from Lebanese territory and fell in northern Israel near the town of Metula. No one was hurt, but the Israeli military were forced to retaliate artillery attack on the proposed site of the missile launch. Furthermore, Israeli authorities said that this incident will be considered as violation of the terms of the existing ceasefire agreement.

Brigade 'Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades "military wing of Hamas, and other Palestinian armed groups regularly try to put the missile attacks on Israeli territory. According to the Israeli army, since 2001 the country exploded nearly 7,800 rockets. 32 people were killed, several hundred were injured. To protect the country from such threats, Israel was forced to start several projects missile defense systems. One of them led to the emergence of complex defense "Kipat Barzel" or "Iron Dome", which has already been adopted for service. Others are still under development and testing.

Palestinian armed organizations are armed with a sufficiently large number of weapons, including rocket. It should be noted, most of the used rockets made in makeshift conditions in the Gaza Strip, which affects their structure and characteristics. The main missiles Hamas militants remain rockets "Qassam", received wide acclaim. These munitions are made of water pipes and other scrap materials. As raw material for solid rocket fuel used ingredients used in agriculture.

Aware of the existence of four modifications "Qassam" rockets, differing dimensions, weight and mass warhead. So, the rocket "Qassam-1" with a length of about 1.8 m and a diameter of 11.5 cm body weighs about 35 kg. The missile body "Kassam-4" manufactured from a tube of the same diameter, but has a length of 2,45-2,5 m and the total weight of the warhead reaches 50 kg. Specific design and home-made rocket fuel severely limit the characteristics of the product. Because of this, the maximum range of the missile "Qassam-1" is less than 5 kilometers, and "Kassam-4" does not fly more than 18-20 km. Weight charge warhead missiles depends on the model and production capabilities. Usually this option is in the range of 5-10 kg.

As launchers for missiles such constructions are used, assembled from metal profiles. Construction launchers and missiles created taking into account the maximum of cheaper production. As a result, the product family "Qassam" are no more than a few hundred dollars. Low cost and associated technical features missiles lead to extremely low accuracy. Rockets handicrafts can only be used for shooting large area targets, such as cities.

In addition to home-based Hamas rockets engaged in other armed units engaged in the fight against Israel. For obvious reasons, the characteristics of such products remain relatively low. Nevertheless, armed Palestinian groups and has a more serious weapon. July 10 Israeli media reported that Hamas militants held in Tel Aviv attack using rockets M75. These munitions are slightly modified version of the Iranian Fajr-5 missiles and capable of delivering a warhead weighing up to 80-90 kg at a distance of 80 kilometers.

Apparently, at the moment rockets M75, used since 2012, is the best creation of gunsmiths engineers Hamas. Shortly after the first application of these munitions in the center of Gaza City, a new monument - M75 missile in full size. In addition, the same name produced spirits in flavor which, according to the advertisement, "refreshing smell victory combined with the smell of freedom and the Palestinian resistance."

Subjected to constant shelling, Israel was forced to take action. At the beginning of the two thousandth's specialists Rafael and several foreign companies engaged in designing prospective missile defense system capable of defending the country from the city unguided missiles. The first tests of the new complex "Kipat Barzel" took place in 2007. The next few years went to the refinement of the technologies and training complex for use. In March 2011, the "Iron Dome" atonement for combat duty. The system is designed to intercept rockets with a range of 4-70 kilometers, flying a ballistic trajectory. In 2012 the complex was first demonstrated its capabilities in a real combat situation. During the operation the "pillar of cloud" in November 2012, the eight days of the complex four batteries intercepted more than 420 missiles - about 85% of the issued. Currently there are seven on duty batteries eighth start work later this year.

Israel plans to build a multi-layered missile defense system based on several complexes with different characteristics. In the near future it is planned to complete the finishing of the new system "Charvet CCAY" ("Magic Wand"), also known as the "Kel David" ("Slingshot David"). The purpose of this complex, developed by Israeli company Rafael, in cooperation with the U.S. Raytheon, will be intercepting ballistic missiles with a range of 40 to 300 kilometers. Missile launch range - up to 250 km.

Since the beginning of the two thousandth's, Israel exploits complex Arrow («Arrow"), which became the result of cooperation of the Israeli company IAI c American company Boeing and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency. On complex Arrow, also known under the names "Arrow" ("Arrow") and "Homa" ("The Wall"), entrusted with the tasks of strategic missile defense. System "Arrow" is able to intercept and destroy ballistic missiles with a range of 400-2000 km, as well as their combat units. Maximum speed of the target is declared at 4.5 km / s.

Due to the nature of armed militants of Hamas Israeli military currently has to use only missile complex "Kipat Barzel." As far as we know, in the last few days, militants have launched these missiles, with which he can fight. Ammunition with a range of a few tens of kilometers until used.

As follows from published data for the days of "Operation Enduring rock" militants fired at Israel a few hundred rockets of various types. Thus most of the ammunition, flying toward the city was successfully intercepted missile defense systems and destroyed in the air. In order to avoid repeated attacks from the Gaza Strip and Israeli air attacks seeking positions that are deployed launchers. Already published a video of such attacks.

Israeli military operation called "Indestructible Rock", whose aim is to destroy the militants armed organizations Gaza began on July 7. Over the past few days from the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, Israel released several hundred missiles. A large part of these munitions fell outside the Israeli cities, some of the missiles were shot using complex "Iron Dome." From the words of the Permanent Representative of Israel to the UN Ron Prosor implies that the militants have an ample supply of weapons to continue firing for a long time, even without the production of new missiles. How will last current fighting and whether Israel will dare to conduct ground operations - is still unknown. It is already clear that the Israeli settlements of missile defense systems have to work hard to protect their country from enemy missiles.

===============================================
Terlepas effect dari agresi Israel ke Gaza yg memilukan hati, dan sangat menyentuh rasa kemanusiaan, disini terlihat, bagaimana agresi Israel itu sekaligus ajang kepiawiaan alutsista yg di pakai, atau merupakan betel prupen arena berbagai senjata produk lama & baru.
Disini sekaligus juga menguji apakah :

1. Doktrin Perang Semesta itu masih relevan atau tidak.
2, Apakah Perang Gerlya yang dilancarkan Hamas merupakan pengembangan perang gerilya baru yakni perang gerilya perkotaan.?
3. Adakah pengembangan taktik & strategi baru, dari perang perkotaan thd penggunaan material alutsista produk baru / lama.
4. Dengan keberhasilan penguasaan technology peroketan oleh Hamas, mengisyaratkan kelemahan Intelijen Israel atau memang kesengajaan, agar Israel dapat menggunakan kondisi ini sebagai Trigger, untuk memulai agresi dan dengan demikian secara nyata juga sekaligus melakukan praktek lapangan bagi effektivitas material baru persenjataannya.
Ach, apapun "Damai itu Indah" namun,...que sera, sera, what ever will be.......
