The attack, which killed several civilians, was accompanied by acts of sabotage. But far from breaking Iran&#8217;s defenses, the offensive triggered a powerful and coordinated response that shifted the balance on the battlefield.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defense System Shattered<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s retaliatory campaign, which unfolded over 12 days, exposed serious flaws in what had long been touted as one of the world&#8217;s most advanced air defense networks.<\/p>\n<p>According to a July 16 Wall Street Journal report, Iran used a strategy of adaptive warfare, adjusting missile types, trajectories, timing, and geographic spread, to challenge &#8220;Israel&#8217;s&#8221; layered system. What began with 8% of Iranian missiles reaching their targets soon escalated to 16%, as Iran&#8217;s tactics evolved and its precision improved.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most significant blows came on June 22, when 10 out of 27 Iranian missiles reportedly hit their intended targets inside occupied territories. Despite years of Western claims that systems like Iron Dome, David&#8217;s Sling, and Arrow would offer near-total protection, Iran&#8217;s missiles successfully breached all four layers of Israeli defense.<\/p>\n<p>Iran&#8217;s use of the Fattah-1 hypersonic missile, capable of descending at over Mach 10 with a maneuverable warhead, marked a turning point. This weapon, which only the most advanced interceptors are theoretically able to counter, overwhelmed Israeli and US-backed systems alike.<\/p>\n<p>As interceptors became scarce and costly, &#8220;Israel&#8221; was forced to prioritize select threats, revealing the inherent weaknesses of its supposedly impregnable shield.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iran restores all damaged air defense systems By Al Mayadeen English Source: Agencies Iran has restored all air defense systems damaged during the recent Israeli aggression, demonstrating both military readiness and strategic depth.
