Israel is using lasers to shoot down rockets. For the first time in history, laser defense technology is able to intercept rockets, missiles, and drones — a breakthrough that superpowers tried and failed to achieve for 60 years, until Israeli scientists made it real. Traditional interceptors like the Iron...

You heard it here first: Iron Dome is essentially free for Israel, since it is now in mass production and its manufacturing is subsidised by export orders to the tune of billions. The ability of the Tamir interceptors to shoot down ballistic missiles was first seen in June, in their terminal attack phase, and it totally inverts the cost equation between Iran and Israel in the missile anti-missile war. The interceptors are much cheaper than the missiles, and so far their launch systems have proven impervious to counterattack, even agaisnt the largest ballistic missile inventory ever assembled. Rumours of Israel running short on interceptors are false. The IDF has begun using interceptors against some of the cluster munitions, itself an extraordinary feat—to be able to assess the risk of up to 80 munitions at once and fire off dozens of interceptors to hit the ones that pose the most danger. In the first weeks of this war, Israel did not attempt to intercept the small munitions, since they pose minimal risk to civilians under shelter. Their lethal blast radius is just a few metres, and many are failing to detonate. In total, the thousands of bomblets killed three people. Since videos now show Iron Dome activated against this negligible threat, the IDF clearly feels that the remaining Iranian and Hezbollah stockpiles are no match for their own interceptor stockpiles. The IDF claims to have intercepted about 93% of the 600 or so missiles fired at Israel from Iran, and while there are huge amounts of disinformation on this topic, the facts are the facts: some 500 tonnes of high explosive launched at Israel (500–1,000 kg per missile) has led to just 20 deaths, all civilians. So whatever Israel is doing, it is working.

🚨BREAKING REALITY CHECK 🇺🇸 American MILITARY LASERS REIGNS A viral video is circulating claiming the United States just used a “space-based laser weapon” against Iran. Let’s separate fact from hype. Yes… the U.S. military is using laser technology in this conflict. But not the kind being claimed in that video. The system actually deployed is HELIOS… a ship-mounted high-energy laser on U.S. Navy destroyers. It is designed to shoot down drones like Iran’s Shahed UAVs using concentrated energy beams. Why does that matter? Because each laser shot costs only electricity… while intercepting drones with missiles can cost millions of dollars per shot. That makes HELIOS a powerful defensive tool against large drone swarms. But the viral clip claiming “space lasers turning the sky blue and blasting fireballs into space” is almost certainly misidentified footage of conventional weapons. What you’re likely seeing in those explosions are things like: Cruise missile strikes Fuel or ammunition detonations Drone intercept explosions Or missile defense intercepts The United States Space Force does play a role… but it’s through satellites detecting missile launches using infrared tracking, not orbital laser weapons. In short… Yes… America is deploying advanced directed-energy weapons. No… there is no confirmed evidence of space-based laser strikes in this conflict. The real takeaway is still impressive. Modern warfare is changing fast… and low-cost laser defense is already proving devastating against drone swarms. But the viral “space laser apocalypse” claims are hype, not verified military technology in use right now. Always verify before amplifying. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove
