Iran's missile attack routes are becoming safer every day. ▪️What is the reason for the increased accuracy of Iran's strikes on American targets? 🔹A significant part of the surveillance, tracking, and engagement network that the U.S. installed in the countries surrounding Iran over the past decade has been almost entirely taken out. 🔹Western sources claim that Iran has also gained access to satellite images, which enhances exact positioning of targets and allows for the assessment of operations after strikes. 🔹Another reason for the increased success rate of Iranian missiles is the destruction of U.S. early warning radars in the region. This includes the strategic system AN/FPS-132, which has a detection range of 5,000 kilometers. 🔹Patriot defense systems may have had some chance against older generations of Iranian missiles like the Shahab series, Qadr, and early models of the Fateh 110 family, but they are practically defenseless against maneuvering and hypersonic launches. 🔹Iran is primarily using hypersonic projectiles in its new attacks, which not only have speed but also have maneuverability, meaning that the existence or absence of the Patriot system does not make a significant difference.
