Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A

Explanation

The Iron Dome is a mobile all-weather air defense system developed by Israel. It was designed by Rafael Advanced Defense Systems and Israel Aerospace Industries to intercept and destroy short-range rockets and artillery shells fired from distances of 4 kilometers to 70 kilometers away.

  • Israel: It is the primary developer and operator of the system, which became operational in 2011 to counter threats from Gaza and Lebanon.
  • United States: While the U.S. has provided billions of dollars in financial support for the system's development and maintenance, and the U.S. Army has purchased two batteries for evaluation, the system is fundamentally Israeli technology.
  • France: France is not involved in the development or ownership of the Iron Dome; it utilizes its own systems like the SAMP/T.

Therefore, the system belongs to Israel.
