At this point, I am convinced that it was a Iranian C-802 or C-701 guided missile that hit the IDF Saar 5.
I am also just about convinced from the reports and statements, that the IDF felt it was not in danger of SSM attack and therefore did not have the defensive systems that would have protected them and the other vessels from such attack activated...which, if so, I find rediculous, inexcusable and derelect in the threat environment they faced with Hezbollah receiving such open support from Iran.
But that's just my opinion.
Concur.
Just a short distance from an enemy coast, on a flat plain, in plain site (and plane sight!) while the enemy is shooting missile/rockets into your homeland from further distances away...
but NOT being at full alert (or at least battle conditions steaming) and with all anti-missile/anti-plane/anti-ship systems up?
Foolish. The CO's actions are inexcusable. If his systems were down (for some reason) he had no business being there until they were up. Brit's proved today's (80's vintage!) systems run just fine if operated continuously under wartime conditions.
