Since the C-802 has not been fielded in the Med I doubt the Israeli countermeasures and EW guys were trained nor prepared for the threat.
Our Navy has been well aware of the C-802 threat in the Persian Gulf and has had nearly a decade to prepare for it. The Iranian Missile crews will be dead within minutes of the Strike authorization.
I still doubt this report. Importing and setting up such a system undetected is hard to believe. What proof do the Israeli's have? Have they attacked and destroyed the site yet? It just seems fishy...
Are you former Navy?
My thoughts also. I'm not saying it's impossible, just hard to believe.
The Iranians have had the C-802 for some time. Since they are a principal threat to Israel, and since Hezbollah is openely supported by Iran, I canot imagine Israel not being trained and prepared for that threat.
