Idk brother, the IRGC has struck Israel several times but these operations don’t seem to be establishing any deterrence against future sabotage/assassinations in Iran.
The Erbil strike (whether successful or not) is a step in the right direction but without an increased tempo followed up by more comprehensive strikes that take undoubtedly takeout Israelis out. We will continue to see Iranian facilities and personnel be killed/damaged since there is an IMMENSE clandestine Israeli/American backed presence in the nation.
Your’re 100% correct. These quad copters are either being locally sourced or smuggled in for such clandestine operations.
Is it that Iran simply isn’t defending such sites AT ALL, or is it that some sabotage attempts eventually make it through due to their very nature (small form factors, generally hard to detect and all that jazz).
It is a quadcopter after all and even Israel with their thick AD apparatus can’t thwart all incoming drones.
Tell me how many quad copters have made it and hit Israeli positions from palestine? I mean surely Quds Force can sneak in quad copters.
The excuse of “oh well it’s very difficult to defend against” then why isn’t Iran doing the same? If it’s hard to defend against then Iran should do it as well. I mean much cheaper than firing F-110’s at a compound.
And Russian bases in Syria were harassed by quad copters by ISIS and took some damage quite a few times. Then they placed the appropriate systems and the threat was neutralized.
Quadcopters should not be breaching sensitive military sites. There are specialized radars and jammers that exist that force these things to crash. They are used around the world at airports to prevent incidents by stupid people or terrorists.
There has been an explosion (no pun intended) of radar and air defense development in Iran last 10 years. As well as drone development.
If there is any country that understands drone penetrating airspaces it would be Iran. So clearly Iran knows how to defend against it.
The question is WHY aren’t they doing it?
In Tehran’s high ranking government official neighborhoods you couldn’t get a quadcopter even close to them. There are systems in place to detect and neutralize these threats.
I don’t see how politicians/government officials are more important than our brightest minds or our valuable military/nuclear equipment.
