It will be interesting to see if Israel went after any really senior Iranian leadership. It seems unlikely they did that tonight. They did however leave them defenseless. Khameini is now wide open to ending like Nasrallah did.

We’ll see what happens now.

According to Israeli Defense Officials; tonight’s Strike Campaign against Military Targets inside Iran has now Ended, with over 20 Sites being Targeted in Three Waves carried out by the Israeli Air Force.

The SAM radars are the key. The SAMs are worthless without search & fire control radars. Israel used kinetic means (actual ordnance) to hard kill some. Others that had a marginal chance of detecting incoming Israeli missiles could have simply been jammed: radars flooded with electronic noise to make them unusable. Others still could be hacked & manipulated.

Like I said earlier, the current generation of Iranian fighters is simply not capable of detecting, thekind of incoming strikes the Israel’s launch tonight. The Israeli fighter jet that launched these missiles into Iran, would’ve launched them from standoff range far outside the radar detection capabilities of Iranian fighters. Israeli fighter bombers don’t need to penetrate Iranian airspace for this kind of strike, to hit these kinds of targets. They can launch their air-to-ground missiles from well outside of Iranian airspace making Iranian fighters a mute point.

This directly talks about use of the F-35 stealth fighter, & stealth cruise missiles by Israel. They have both & both were likely used together to attack the more dangerous SAM sites. Even if the F-35’s had approached Iranian airspace, the fighters Iran has don’t have the ability to detect much less engage those planes or cruise missiles.

If Israel has to carry out another round of strikes, Iran will not simply wake up to a shattered air defense network & the loss of drone & ballistic missiles. The Israelis will put other more important targets in the crosshairs.

The Full English Statement by the Spokesman for the Israel Defense Force, Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari following tonight’s Strike Operation against Military Targets inside Iran, “The IDF fulfilled its Mission. If the Regime in Iran were to make the Mistake, of beginning of New Round of Escalation, we will be obligated to Respond.”

There is very likely a political explanation for why Israel chose to limit its target set for this evening’s strikes. After November 5th, there won’t be any political road blocks restraining Israel target selection.

This is very interesting.
