For the Syrian raid they turned off the countries entire communications and air defense systems via a hack.....

This exercise was done with open comms and such a large number of aircraft, they expect it to get leaked. Expect a much different attack when it actually happens.

It’s a great story. Look at the evidence. The Israel’s took the path of least resistance to the Syrian facility in the desert. Hugging and using Turkish airspace through a northern sector that had limited and known air defense systems.

They even used the same route on egress and jettisoned their external fuel tanks over the panhandle of Turkey that juts down into Syria. There is no magical switch, but excellent intelligence and route planning. The Syrians took the chance not to protect the facility with traditional air defense systems, thus alerting signals intelligence systems and sat recon. The Syrians took the gamble and lost. It was the likes of Debka that reported total defeating of newly supplied Russian missiles that Syria didn’t even operate.
