The aftermath of the drama of Iran's missile attack on the Israeli mainland has not completely dissipated, and there has been a considerable reversal of things, which is really exciting. Russia's Sputnik news agency quoted Iranian media reports that Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps' Aerospace Forces, said in an interview that in the punitive action against Israel, the Revolutionary Guards did not use new-generation missiles such as the "Khorramshahr" ballistic missile, the "Sajir" ballistic missile, and the "Martyr Haji Qasim" ballistic missile, let alone the "Fatah" hypersonic missile that had been rumored to be rumored for a long time Israel and the Western camp to the fullest".
The commander of the Aerospace Forces of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps gave a briefing
If that's true, then it's really interesting. You must know that although Israeli officials once clamored that "99 percent of Iran's incoming missiles were successfully intercepted by the United States, Britain, and Israel," the number of intercepted incoming missiles made public by the Israeli side is obviously not in line with the number of missiles launched by Tehran, and the former is greater than the latter, which may indicate that Israel has exaggerated the scale of Iran's attack and counted some of the missile wreckage that was intercepted and disintegrated into several pieces as incoming missiles.
Israel launched an anti-missile interception operation
Judging from the actual losses suffered by Israel, a relatively real figure speculated by the outside world is that "about 50% of Iranian missiles were intercepted by the United States, Britain and Israel", and the rest of Iranian missiles were basically not intercepted or successfully broke through. If, according to the generals of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, these missiles belong to the old models that are not advanced, then the people of the world may have a clearer understanding of air defense and anti-missile interception operations.
Israel launched an anti-missile interception operation
From a certain point of view, in the face of the missile strike launched by Tehran last weekend, the United States, Britain, and Israel basically calmly carried out anti-missile interception operations under the condition that all conditions and environment were close to "optimal." This "optimal" situation includes the linkage of the three major platforms of air fighters, the ground anti-missile air defense system, and the maritime anti-missile air defense system, as well as the fact that Israel's airspace was infinitely close to the "clear space" that night, that is, there was no risk of accidentally hitting a civilian aircraft, and the US military, the British army, and the Israel Defense Forces could "unleashed" to intercept them.
Multi-warhead missiles
However, it is precisely under these circumstances that the US, British, and Israeli armies, which have almost gone all out, have only scored "50 points" in the face of an incoming vote of Iran's old missiles, which obviously shows that modern air defense and antimissile operations are still a world-class military problem. It is not difficult to find from the many videos that leaked that night that after some Iranian missiles flew over Israel, they released a number of objects suspected to be warheads from the warhead, that is, MRV technology was used to attack the target in a "semi-cluster + semi-scattered" manner.
It is possible that MRV warheads were used in some Iranian missiles
The armies of the United States, Britain, and Israel obviously do not have a very good way to deal with this kind of "1 bomb into 10 pieces" at the end of the flight. Either the Iranian missiles will be destroyed before they re-enter the atmosphere, before the warheads can be released, or they will have to intercept the released bullets one by one, but the difficulty and cost of this will increase exponentially. Considering that MRV technology has been around for decades, Iran has also mastered it and can easily use it on ordinary ballistic missiles. From this point of view, it cannot be ruled out that some Iranian missiles carry multiple warheads, and they may rely on their numerical superiority to allow the air defense and anti-missile systems of the United States, Britain, and Israel to reach the upper limit of the fire channel, and then allow some missiles beyond the upper limit of the opponent's fire channel to successfully break through and intercept, and then complete the strike on the relevant targets.
Israel launches anti-missile interceptor missiles
Again, the interception success rate of modern air defense and anti-missile operations is to a large extent a "metaphysics," and we cannot even judge the success of anti-missile operations by relying only on the so-called "numbers of interception success rates," but we still have to look at the specific losses of the attacked side. In any case, Iran's missile strike can still be seen as a success.
