but one new theory emerging amid the speculation is that the Israeli conducted an electronic warfare exercise in preparation for future strikes or an attack on Iran.

Didn't I say this on an earlier thread....and people pooh poohed me.

The stunner Bibi's aide spoke about ....was the take down of the Syrian AA system.....now someone tell me again I'm wrong.

The Stunner is a missile interceptor.

That’s one of Dr. Wheeler’s theories, also.

I think it’s a great point.

He hasn’t said anything since his first statement so we don’t know.

I was thinking that the “stunner” would be physical evidence of NK nuclear material recovered from the site itself, not the (surprise!) of American systems vs Russian whatever.

It is laughable just how stupid the Arabs are about from whom they buy lethal equipment to wage war.

They have been doing that since 67 and they just keep sending mother Russia billions for - as I’ve always said - equipment in which to die.

Big smoking holes in the ground with the tattered remains of a few arab soldiers...

I don’t buy it. The Syrians and Iranians will change their systems based upon that attack.

So that attack was not a test run against Iran.

Iran announced this week that it has deployed its own “new defense system.”

You don’t give up the element of surprise by revealing that you can take down an enemy system just for the heck of it.

EWS was my specialty from 1966-1970 with the USAF. We were not allowed to turn on our equipment within the USA. We could black out cities.

Now 37 years later I cannot imagine what they could do.

Found the possible system in a Google search....

U.S. aerospace industry and retired military officials indicated today that a technology like the U.S.-developed “Suter” airborne network attack system developed by BAE Systems and integrated into U.S. unmanned aircraft by L-3 Communications was used by the Israelis. The system has been used or at least tested operationally in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last year.

The technology allows users to invade communications networks, see what enemy sensors see and even take over as systems administrator so sensors can be manipulated into positions so that approaching aircraft can’t be seen, they say. The process involves locating enemy emitters with great precision and then directing data streams into them that can include false targets and misleading messages algorithms that allow a number of activities including control.

Being over 50 has a number of downsides, and just one of them is that I’d probably have to live to be about 120 before finding out what happened. Those in there 20’s and 30’s just have to make it into their 80’s or 90’s. :-)

Always willing to oblige.

You’re wrong.

I totally agree. I took a stab at what happened in Project Orchard over at the We Came So Close thread, pinged you. Like someone else said, if you’re gonna pontificate, pontificate BIG, and once you assume the IDF actually made off with a functional nuke, it’s easier to derive scenarios.
