Israel retaliated against Iran’s missile attack 25 days later. This morning (October 26), 100 Israeli fighter jets carried out large-scale missile attacks on 20 Iranian military bases. Israel attacks Iranian missile and drone facilities. Israel named the operation “Operation Day of Repentance.” In Hebrew, this means a day of repentance. Let’s understand how Israel carried out this operation.
In fact, Israel used its top fighter jets and missiles to carry out precision strikes on Iranian military bases. The attack was carried out in three phases. Israel dispatched fifth-generation fighter jets to carry out the attack.
1. F-35: Can take off and land vertically. Its top speed is 1975 km/h. This fighter jet can fly at a maximum altitude of 50,000 feet.
2. F-15I Ra’am: Its real name is F-15 Strike Eagle. Top speed is 2656 km/h. The combat range is 1,272 kilometers and the ferry range is 3,900 kilometers. It can reach altitudes up to 60,000 feet.
3. F16I “Sufa”: Pilot doesn’t press buttons while flying. Just look at the enemy. Enemy targets are destroyed by a system installed in the helmet. Its helmet system is connected to the fighter’s radar and weapons systems.
> The three fighter jets each have a range of approximately two thousand kilometers. Also used was the Furious Long missile, a long-range air-to-ground precision supersonic missile. The missile is 15 feet long. Its weight is 570 kg. This is a GPS-guided missile designed to counter Iran’s S-300 defense system. In addition, Israel also uses supersonic missiles and next-generation “Rock” missiles. The ROCKS missile is developed by Israel’s Rafael Advanced Defense Systems. ROCKS is a new generation of long-range missile. It is designed to attack high-speed targets in GPS prohibited areas. All three are air-to-surface missiles.
Why are oil reserves not meeting targets?
The Israeli military did not target Iran’s oil reserves and nuclear facilities to prevent a war from reaching deadly proportions. Israel chose to attack Iranian military bases. With the help of 100 fighter jets, 20 Iranian missile bases and drone bases were attacked in three stages. In the first phase, the radar’s goal is to destroy Iran’s air defense system. Since then, missiles have been fired at military bases.
10 fighter jets provided full cover
In the final stages of the Israeli attack, Israel targeted Iranian drone bases. Israeli fighter jets attacked in groups of 25 to 30 aircraft. Among them, 10 aircraft continued to launch missile attacks, while the remaining aircraft provided cover. During the operation, Israeli and U.S. air defense systems were placed on high alert in case of retaliatory attacks.
Iran Claim – Limited Damages
If we understand the Iranian side, the Shia-dominated country said its air defense systems fended off Israeli attacks in Tehran, Khuzestan and the state of Ilam. Damage was limited in some places.
