re: “It’s a formidable system. It really gives a new dimension to Iran’s antiaircraft defences,” the unnamed defense expert said. “It’s much better than the US system. It has good radar. It can shoot down low-flying cruise missiles, though with some difficulty.”

Sounds like copy from a sales brochure! Aren’t these the same people who provided Syria with its ‘state-of-the-art’ defense system that was so successful in detecting and then then stopping Israel’s attack on their soil a few months ago?

I hope they’re paying for these systems by the word of advertising rather than by the success or failure of the actual system!
