Quick summary: an analysis of the Iranian ballistic missiles used in the attack in April showed them to demonstrate dramatically worse performance than had been expected of them.

    Huh, yeah, not accurate I guess.

    Remember, Israel has extreme censorship over damage caused by the missile attack right now.

      Something inaccurate can still hit a target. I suck at darts but I’ve still hit the bullseye before. One photo is really not enough to show whether or not the missiles were accurate in general.

        There are quite a few from Nevatim.

        And yeah, the tactics of these launches are obvious. You launch far more cheaper missiles that will still have to be intercepted so that the big ones get through.

        This and cheap as dirt drones are the future of warfare. Your response is the stereotypical response to a new technology that threatens the status quo because there is a social construct around the alternative technology.

        Like how heavy cavalry were all nobility, but a team of three longbow archers could take them out with ease.
