Is there a reason you spam this forum by opening no less than 9 posts on the same topic ?
You are clearly motivated to spam this forum with your propaganda and nonsense claims
As for your stupid claim that " i think Syria intercepted 80% - 90% of the missiles "
Really ? 80% . Are you sure it is not 75% . On what exactly do you base your data other than wishful thinking ?
For you and some others here who seems brainwashed by propaganda , let us clear this point. Syria simply does not have the technology to intercept missiles.
Very few country do. So I estimate the number of missiles intercepted at 0% and call out those who come up with fantasy stories like " attack was intercepted , repealed , defended , as a bunch of zombies , brainwashed by propaganda.
Actually Israel is on of the few that does have this technology .

Actually m8,the ability of the syrian adf to intercept enemy missiles would depend on the exact type of "missiles" used in the attack and the capabilities of the defending systems that were attempting to engage and intercept them.
For instance you have cruise missiles which tend to fall into a couple of classes.The first of which are the types powered by turbojets and turbofans,which are usually in the subsonic to low supersonic speed range.The next class of cruise missiles are powered by rockets,either solid or liquid fueled,or sometimes ramjets.These are usually a bit faster than their jet powered cousins but they tend to be in the lower to mid range of supersonic,tho the liquid fueled as4/kh22 could achieve a little over mach 4.5 which puts it in the high supersonic.Next you have quasi ballistic missiles,so called because they remain within the atmosphere during their flight regime,these are usually in the mid to upper range of supersonic or perhaps just reaching hypersonic speeds,examples of these would be the iranian fateh110 or its extended range zulfiqar variant which are capable of speeds around mach 3-3.5,there is also the russian iskander which is capable of achieving low hypersonic speed at mach 5.9.The final class is the ballistic missile,this is capable of leaving the atmosphere and of reaching speeds ranging from hypersonic right up to the high hypersonic range of mach 10-25,they can be liquid or solid fueled and can,depending on the design,be capable of short,medium,intermediate or intercontinental range,it can,depending upon the design,carry single and multiple warheads both guided and unguided as well as decoys and countermeasures.
The most recent attack on damascus appeared to be carried out using subsonic,very likely air launched,turbojet powered short ranged cruise missiles fired from inside israeli airspace,most likely the delilah,which the syrian adf operating mobile sam systems like the sa17/buk m1-2 and m2e,the sa19/2k22m1 tunguska and sa22/pantsir s-1 are quite capable of engaging and defeating,as these were in fact the exact sort of weapons that they were designed to defeat.
Now as for the syrian air defence forces abm[anti ballistic missile] capability.The s300pm2,which the syrians now possess and which will very likely soon be operational,this system possesses the capability to engage both quasi ballistic and short ranged ballistic missiles operating in the high supersonic to low hypersonic range.
So all in all,we can see that the syrian adf has an ok capability to intercept subsonic and low supersonic missiles,the main problems is the level of damage done to the adf infrastructure,especially its long range radar and early warning systems during the usraeli/nato/gcc backed terrorist insurgency,as this degrades the overall effectiveness of the entire ad system and forces the most advanced mobile sams to operate autonomously which limits their effectiveness and potentially makes them more vulnerable.
Lastly the activation of the s300pm sam system should provide the syrian adf with a very modern sam system and with it a very big improvement in its long range air defence capability that it probably hasnt enjoyed since the 70s.
The israeli arrow is in some ways not a bad abm system,however it is handicapped by its distinct lack of mobility,ie no off road or shoot and scoot capability,and the need to operate from fixed or pre-prepared sites.This in turn makes it potentially quite vulnerable to either preemptive strikes or saturation attacks.But then that is the price one pays for basing the system around a radar that weighs 60-odd tons.
Judging by the satellite images that Israel itself is flaunting on the Internet, it is very clear that the end results of multiple wave attack has been quite insignificant. Israel has shown that it has destroyed two air defense systems,one of which is clearly a Pansir-2 which is not shown to be active during the attack possibly due to it having expended all rounds at the time of attack. The Satellite image of the warehouse that was struck at Damascus International airport shows little sign of damage. This to me indicates that it was not being used to store Iranian rockets,missiles or any other type of munition because there is absolutely no evidence of secondary explosion damage. The only other item that the Israelis have shown as destroyed was an JY-27 Air Defense Radar. Overall Syrian Air Defense has really impressed me this time around based on how little damage the Israelis have to show for such a large and hyped attack on "Iranian forces" in Syria.
Agreed,one really has to wonder at just how many cruise missiles the israelis are forced to expend in each of these attacks.
As for the knocked out sa22/pantsir s-1,its somewhat ironic but I really do think the sa19/2k22m1 tunguska might`ve been a better system,as altho it does only have 8 sams compared to the pantsirs 12 it does have 2 30mm fast firing cannons to use for close in defence,much like a naval ciws.It would probably be a good idea in future to have mobile multi gun based ad systems to provide close in defence for the mobile sam systems.
