Iron Dome Puts to Sea

The Israeli Iron Dome anti-missile system is not perfect but darn close. As I noted in a blog piece from July 16, 2014, it saved Israel from massive casualties when Hamas launched a rocket barrage to terrorize the Jewish state. Now the Israelis are putting it on their naval vessels to defend against rocket attacks by small, fast patrol boats like the ones that say, Iran or its proxies might use. Like in the Persian Gulf, where U.S. Navy ships sail. Hello Pentagon - anybody listening?
