Gulf War Operation Desert Storm. Patriiot missile is fired in defence of Airfield
The Patriot Anti-Missile Missile played a massive part in the Gulf War of 1991. The Patriot missile is primarily a defensive weapon, (used to guard against incoming hostile weaponry, such as the Scud missiles employed by Iraq during the Gulf War.) hence its name. The Patriot was most succesfully deployed in the defence of Israel from Iraqi attacks. Saddam Hussein launched nightly attacks on Israel hoping to get Israel to retaliate and therfore win the support of other Arab nations. However, the Patriot was very succesful and Israel suffered only minimal damage. Even so at times Allied diplomacy had to be at its best in order to prevent Israel from retaliating
