This scatter shot weapon the ragheads sent to Israel is the first I’ve heard that they have anything besides impact fuzes. Always before their stuff goes off only after it hits the ground which always makes a crater. The crater absorbs about a quarter of the energy. The rest is bad enough but nowhere as bad as, say, a 100 ft airburst for the same warhead would be. Maybe their math skills didn’t include air bursts? This would be a heckuva bad sign if they’ve learned how to time a detonation?

Im kinda surprised they don’t have proximity (radar) fuses, was that WWII tech still so badass that 3 tier nations don’t have it???
