The aircraft intercepted data around the incoming missiles on Israel and passed the information at real-time to fighter pilots of Israel along with operators of Israel's Iron Dome, which is a defense system that blocks enemy missiles and attacks on Israel's land. The tech available on the multi-million pound aircraft tracked down all the incoming 320 missiles and drones launched from Iran. Interestingly, from the moment the missiles began raining down, Iranian State TV broadcasted almost every moment of it, according to The Sun report.
The Oron aircraft was located at a very strategic location in the sky from where it coordinated with Israeli fighter pilots and the Iron Dome, the strategy being similar to a video game, according to the pilot flying this aircraft, says The Sun. According to the pilot, it was one of the most meaningful operations in his entire career of more than almost 20 years. Reportedly, due to the aircraft's help and ready assistance, Israel's defense systems were able to successfully defend almost 99 per cent of the missile attack launched by Iran.
The Oron is a business jet modified with embedded AI technology by Israeli and US experts to make it one of the most resourceful and compact stealth planes in the world.
