Jerusalem Post: Iran’s defense system is a new challenge for the Israeli Air Force.
Referring to the strength of Iran’s defense systems, a Zionist publication wrote that Iran’s defense industry is strong and is constantly working to improve and build systems and areas that could threaten Israel.
“Iran’s defense systems are a new challenge for Israel, and the Israeli Air Force recognizes that the Islamic Republic’s defense industry is strong and is constantly improving and building systems and areas that it can,” a Zionist newspaper wrote Sunday in an article on Iran’s use of advanced air defense systems. He is trying to threaten Tel Aviv.
The Jerusalem Post writes that since Iran deployed new air defense systems in Syria last year, the Israeli air force has been forced to change the way it attacks. Tehran first intensified its attacks last year. Israel deployed these systems in Syria.
The Syrian army itself is equipped with a set of old Russian-made surface-to-air missile systems. Russia has also deployed advanced S-300 and S-400 air defense systems, but has not provided them to the Syrians, who are managing them themselves, and they have not yet been used against Israeli jets. اند.
The newspaper continued that the deployment of these Iranian systems in Syria is an attempt to intercept more Israeli fighters. In this way, Iran separates its radars from missile launchers and has forced the Israeli air force to change the way it operates during the operation.
Iran’s defense systems are new and different, and Israel has not yet fully understood how they work.
In 2018, an Israeli F-16 fighter jet crashed in northern Israel after being hit by a Sam-5 missile fired by Syrian forces during an operation. Syrian missiles have also landed in Israel in recent years, including this year when fragments of a missile struck north of Tel Aviv.
