The video tutorial explains a battle management system designed to intercept missiles and artillery shells within a range of 4 to 70 kilometers. It can track and intercept multiple threats simultaneously, predicting missile paths and launching interceptors only at those threatening populated areas. The Tamia interceptor missile is initially guided by a radar and management system, with onboard radar taking over later. The Iron Dome system calculates interception points to prevent debris from falling on populated areas, boasting a success rate of over 90%.
