Israeli sources: Iran missile strike a ‘flop,’ with most missing target

[Blue In Green]

Its been 3 days and the sources saying Iran's missiles didn't have much effect haven't posted any real evidence to support their claims. Subsequently, if they had viable data on whether or not Iran's missiles did indeed perform sub-par the Western MSM would have been running a story on it as we speak.

There was only that Times of Israel article that had only two sources saying such, but other than that we don't have much to go on. Regardless Iran targeted 4 areas in total with a 6-7 missiles.

In my honest opinion if the (zionist) run western media can forget that Iran ever launched missiles into Syria it will work in their benefit since giving Iran credit will break their facade of Iran being some weak nation.

Hard to say what happened without some on the ground photos of the damage, but the numbers that Iran is giving us is specific and the people who were also killed are also specific meaning Iran does indeed have some one on the ground feeding IRGC information on the head count from the attack. (3 Libyans and naming ISIS leaders by name is something that is specific and needs some level of intelligence to do).

Israel doesn't provide reliable data anyways (Iraq WMD's is enough to render them useless)

Why? I hardly think PressTV is the "right" source. I am still waiting for confirmation from post-attache imagery, and "expert" analysis.

How delusional are you?

Here is CNN very briefly mentioning Iran's missile attack 2 min into the video and when they say "They did do that by all accounts" that means it's pretty much confirmed by the U.S. military!!!


FYI when you go on YouTube and post video's about how NOT SCARED you are then that means how really really scared you truly are! Especially when you turn your comments off! LOL!

So downplaying the missile strikes by Israeli's is logical but at the end of the day it's nothing more than propaganda to keep their people calm!

As for Iran's part, this was more about sending a message to the Saudi's because when you have armed UAV's flying over Syria then you don't really need to use your missiles!
And the target Iran chose is about the same distance between Iran & the Saudi Capital in Riyadh (~650km)

And accurately hitting a target 650km away with a solid fuel ballistic missile means in a matter of minutes Iran can target and take out the Saudi Leadership if it so chooses because the missiles are too fast for them to have time to react

Any source apart from the Israelis?

There honestly doesn't seem to be. That's the only story that was run on Irans ballistic performance yet the evidence from the drone footage runs contrary to the Israeli security analysis claims.

Drone footage Cleary shows different areas being struck.

It's beginning to come off as a low-tier propaganda stunt aimed at delegitimizing the threat of Irans missiles.

Basically the tried and true, their weak and we'really still strong. The US uses the same tactic against China and Chinese made weapons and performance.

 

[Draco.IMF]

yeah, and Iran posses only 20 Shahab missiles.....

In logical terms, the Iranian military would not have fired those missiles if they were not highly confident in their accuracy/effectiveness. Otherwise it would have defeated the entire purpose.

When countries make such rare and high-profile strikes, they are going to be using reliable platforms.

So the claims made by these Israeli sources are pretty dubious.

 

[That Guy]

Seems like Israel is worried about the accuracy of Iranian missiles.

Why would they be? They have one of the most advanced anti-missile systems in the world.

I'm actually inclined to believe Israel on this one. IF the missiles were as accurate as the Iranians claim, you can be sure that Israel would use it as a way to scare the US into giving more military aid to them.

Israel is famous in the intelligence apparatus for being masters in perception manipulation. For Israel to acknowledge openly the lethality of Iranian weapons would run contrary to their "Israel is the strongest" claims.

But still, this high profile attack was brushed under the rug by the western (zionist) MSM for obvious reasons.

Hell i'll even give the Israeli's the benefit of the doubt. Even If one of the missiles struck than its still good, Iran has thousands of these things in storage waiting to be fired anyways and this is all in house tech, with sanctions hindering Irans progress along the way.

OOOOOR, the Iranians were testing the missiles, nothing more. Wars are more often than not, places where nations test their latest weapons, to see their effectiveness.

Honestly, 1 out of 7 isn't bad for a test, it shows that Iran is on the right track, even if the strike itself didn't achieve its intended target.

Testing the accuracy of ballistic missiles against stationary targets during such an important and high-profile strike?

That's a pretty strange way to go about it? Testing against stationary targets can be done at any time in their own country, without loss of face.

If they had tested those missiles previously and saw a success rate of 1 out of 7, why on Earth would they use it here?

I think some people in the thread are unbelievably dumb !

Their hate about Iran made them blind about the truth !

If true, this is really bad for IRI and it's vaunted missile program. Effectively this make IRI's 'missile' force another smoke and mirrors. Are there any satellite imagery showing the above claims?

For example this retard !

He knows shit about missiles and still dares to talk about something he knows nothing about ...

Don't take it too close to heart. People by nature are skeptical after all seeing is believing, so you can't blame for their reservations about Irans missiles.

You know, every time you reply to me, to criticize my views, you never actually address my points. It seems to me that all you want to do is live in a bubble, where Iran is the greatest at everything, even when it is not.

Ooooor

Your *** is on fire ?

Why? I live in a technologically advanced developed country, with an advanced professional army, and allied to the most powerful nation on earth. What do I have to be jealous about?

If anything, you seem to be offended that I was even remotely critical of Iran. Why can't you accept the fact that Iran tends to exaggerate its claims?

Don't worry about Soheil, he just over reacts sometimes.

lol, sometimes? This happens every time I post on anything related to Iran; Even when I give Iran credit, I'm somehow being a hater.

 

[AmirPatriot]

Why would they be?

Simple, an enemy gaining better capabilities will not elicit a positive response.

OOOOOR, the Iranians were testing the missiles, nothing more. Wars are more often than not, places where nations test their latest weapons, to see their effectiveness.

Considering Israeli "sources" also claimed the strike only Shahab-3 missiles - when in fact most of the missiles weren't even liquid fuelled - I think ignoring Israeli "analysis" is a safer bet than believing a biased source.

People are just assuming Iran showed all of the footage it captured, or Iran filmed all the strikes.
