That’s what Iraq and Syria have said in the past. It must be a Russian selling point in the brochure.

It can easily be disabled and made to glow in the dark at the same time.

Knock out all of their electronics and we’ll see how impenetrable it is. I luring backup generators. Never say never. Every hacker has been told they couldn’t penetrate a certain network at one time or another too.

The USA has a cultural bias built in. We as a nation cannot imagine that “those illiterate savages” could build something technologically superior.

So Iran has a working missile defense- maybe the same as or better than ours. We sneer and say no way could those illiterate...

Remember Sputnik, Laika, Gagarin. Be prepared for a technological surprise.

Being “technologically superior” and wealthy can blind us to opportunities. Being poor and behind technologically forces one to seek new, different opportunities.

My interpretation of this is that some Mossad agent hacked it and now it plays “Radar Love’ nonstop.

The Persians aren't stupid. The regime that rules them is. Do you think that snap together model jet they rolled out last year (complete with decals and cassette player!) was an elaborate ruse to fool the decadent westerners?
