One of two Israeli-manufactured Iron Dome batteries owned by the Pentagon is ready to be deployed to Ukraine, a US general told the Senate on Thursday. Tel Aviv has so far refused to supply the anti-missile system to Kiev, for fear of provoking Russia and risking its ability to freely bomb Moscow’s ally Syria.

During a Senate Strategic Forces subcommittee hearing on Thursday, Senator Angus King pressed a senior Pentagon official on why Ukraine has not yet received the Iron Dome, noting the US role in creating the air defense system.

“We sent something like $3 billion to Israel to develop it… Wouldn’t this be a very important resource for the Ukrainians since their principal problem right now is missile defense?” the lawmaker asked.

Russia can defeat Iron Dome. Iran has some of the same weapons as Russia.

I'd expect the "iron dome" to be suited to low tech rockets as used by the Hamas and Palestinians. It certainly should be of limited use in Ukraine, especially given the far larger regional war situation, the widespread inventory of air based weapons, and the ability of Russia to simply destroy any such systems.
